Exercise and moving the body

1/12/2017

0 Comments

 
I have made an intention to move my body more in 2017.  I actually have been moving it more and more in gentle ways.  This body of mine resists it though. It is an interesting process.  Being in medical menopause, since the hysterectomy that rid my body of the cancer in 2011, I have had an interesting journey.  The body is such an important part of my mind, body, spirit wellness.  I feel better after I have done some exercise.  I love to walk.  
These are some of the best reasons to exercise. 
  1. getting your heart rate up gets the blood pumping and is good for your health.
  2. it boosts positive endorphins, those feel good hormones that helps keep us happy.
  3. it helps your brain and memory retention and helps decrease your risk of dementia.
  4. it helps give you a second wind or burst of added energy.
  5. it helps us sleep better by increasing HCG or human growth hormone which is linked to sleep.
  6. it has been studied that it can add years to your life.  It can help decrease heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, and lowers cholesterol.
You see, I have many reasons to GET ACTIVE.  I daily run up and down my stairs, I walk outside as often as I can, and at least once a week I do weights for my arms.  It's a start.  I can't wait to get healthier.  When I look at where I was 5 years ago and where I am today, I am proud of my progress. I know it is progress and not perfection.  I know and recognize I am not able to do what others can, but I love myself enough to just move this beautiful container God gave me.  It houses my soul and I know if I don't take good care of it, where would my soul live?
I am so happy and grateful for the second chance at life.  I love myself.  Even at this weight.  I am valuable and I am worthy!! and so are you.
So here's to movement.  I love you all!!!
