Research shows that exercise is as effective as antidepressants in cases of mild depression, and can also alleviate anxiety, so get moving!
If you’re on the easy plan, dedicate just 5 minutes today to physical activity–stretching, jumping jacks, go for a walk–don’t hurt yourself, but move!
If you’re physically fit but unmotivated, try the 7 Minute Workout app. Quick, effective, and you don’t have to think about it.
If you’re already physically active, do a full workout and/or spend some time thinking about your workout routine. Do you need to change things up, challenge yourself more? Register for a 5K , half marathon, or new yoga class? Keep yourself challenged, but above all, keep exercising! It’s one of the best things you can do for yourself.
Dr. Ware, this series of emails rocks. I signed up after reading a link on Facebook. It’s inspiring, not too long and a nice feature start of day. Thank you.
So glad you found Daily Shoring! Sounds like it’s working for you just as I intended–a positive thought or action for the day that doesn’t overwhelm. Thanks for reading and sharing!
Yoga!
I agree! Wholeheartedly!
ive started to take my dog for a longer walk… instead of doing the short route, ive added another block to the walk.
im still reeling from being left and battle with cPTSD, Anxiety, BiPolar II so its baby steps for me at the moment but i am trying.
to get more exercise I usually volunteer for 4 hours every day. Thank God I can do this because it keeps me moving and enables me to get out of the house and help others.
That’s a great way to “Get Moving!” Thanks for sharing, Mary!
