  • Exercise – 5 Minutes Daily

    Now you understand some of the many benefits of exercise:

    – Reduces Stress
    – Boosts Overall Mood
    – Improves Self-Confidence
    – Prevents Cognitive Decline
    – Alleviates Anxiety
    – Boosts Brain Power
    – Sharpens Memory
    – Helps with Addiction Control
    – Increases Relaxation
    – Overall More Energy

    It’s time to start exercising daily if you’re not already and start with just 5 minutes a day if it’s a struggle.

    Remember the best form of exercise is the form of exercise you will actually do. So find something you actually enjoy doing and it wont feel like a task to tick of the list but will become a daily habit ingrained in your lifestyle.

    If getting to the gym or going for a run is too hard then just try a walk on your lunch break or getting off the bus or train a few stops earlier and walk the last part to work.

    Finally, STOP SITTING. Don’t be another person who spends 10 hours a day in a seated position, this is not conducive for productivity, good sleep, a health body or injury prevention. Try to squeeze in some stretching and mobility work each day, try coupling it with watching tv, listening to relaxing music in the evening or even with your meditation.
