Spring Back to Wellness

Our bodies are designed to move through exercise.

Spring has sprung, which means it's time to get outside and get moving! Our bodies are designed to move through exercise, but also as we move throughout our days. As we anticipate an uptick in better weather, try these movement tips to get you back in the groove of moving your body.

1. Park further away from your destination.
2. Dancing.
3. Cleaning the house.
4. Gardening.
5. Taking the stairs.
6. Swapping your car commute for a walk or bike ride.

"I believe in process. I believe in four seasons. I believe that winter's tough, but spring's coming. I believe that there's a growing season. And I think that you realize that in life, you grow. You get better." -Steve Southerland
