Move it!

 STRESS BUSTERS

October 9: Move It

Physical activity is an easy and effective strategy for keeping stress at bay. Find something that you enjoy! Walk, play with your kids, or work in the yard. Take a hike with a friend, try a free yoga video online, or do some squats and lunges while you brush your teeth. Dancing is also a fun way to get some physical activity! Experts recommend 30 minutes or more of movement for adults and 60 minutes for children on most days. Can’t find a 30-minute chunk of time? Break it up into 10-minute blocks throughout the day. Notice the change in your physical and mental tension after  just 10-minutes of movement!
