December 2024 Wellness Tip
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! The holiday season is here which also means it can be the most STRESSFUL time of the year! Did you know that exercise is one of the greatest ways to reduce stress levels? That’s right, virtually any form of exercise can help lower your stress. Here’s how!
When we exercise our body increases the production of endorphins. Those are the things in our body that give us the “Feel good feeling”. Many aerobic activities such as walking, hiking, biking and so on can contribute to this feeling. However, it’s important that you find something YOU enjoy so you are more likely to stick with it. As a general goal, try to aim for 30 minutes of moderate physical activity every day. When we exercise we tend to focus solely on our body’s movement and less on the days stressors. This can help to calm you, reset your mind, and refocus on other tasks. Regular exercise can improve your mood, improve your sleep, increase your self confidence and lower symptoms of mild depression and anxiety. All of these can help to reduce your stress levels and give you overall better control over your body and life.
Go ahead and put a plan together today to ensure you get 30 minutes of exercise each day for a healthier you and a more stress free holiday season!
We wish you the best holiday season yet!
