As we age and move into our retirement chapter we have more time on our hands which is wonderful, but it can also lead to less motivation.

It is crucial to move your body everyday and connect with like minded people who can help you stay healthy and happy.

There are so many ways to move your body, start with small steps. Any form of movement that you enjoy will help you build a healthy lifestyle and meet great people along the way.

My Healthy lifestyle began by simply walking. Walking ignited something deep down in my soul. I craved more of the good feeling. I began to eat healthy food, move my body everyday and clear my mind of the negative thoughts.

I became focused on my wellness goals and found what I truly desired in life. When we feel better we make better choices in our life.

Here are my favorite forms of movement for good health and happiness.

Walking ~ Helps you lose weight, improve heart health, strengthen your immune system and increase your happiness.

Hiking ~ Helps build strong muscles and bones, improves sleep, reduces anxiety and depression, lowers blood pressure and helps with balance. My favorite thing about hiking is that it often doesn't feel like exercise.

Dancing ~ Helps increase your energy level, improve bone health, balance and flexibility. Also dancing is a social activity that can help decrease depression and loneliness. As we age loneliness can lead to many mental and physical illnesses.

Tai Chi ~ Helps improve memory and cognitive function. Good low impact movement to improve your health and socialize with your local community.

Yoga and Meditation ~ So many health benefits from yoga and meditation, Yoga can help you calm your mind and find peace. Yoga helps with Posture, helps build strength and muscles and boost your immune system.

Meditation takes time for most of us to learn, but just checking in with yourself for fifteen minutes a day is enough to feel relaxed and gain clarity. Each morning take time to begin your day with time for yourself.

Cycling ~ Helps build muscles, low impact , better lung health, boost your mood and can be done indoors or outdoors.
