Understanding Stress (Part 2): Movement is Medicine
from The Happiness Diary Podcast with Simon Ngo · host Simon Ngo
Part 2 to Episode 7 - Understanding Stress (Part 1): Stress and Sleep. In this episode, we speak about stress and movements (or exercise). As our body doesn't really differentiate between good and bad stress, we have to be careful to not overexercise. Truth though, most people aren't active enough! I share my five top tips to get more movement in our lives! 1. I talk about how I pencil it in the diary and commit to this appointment. The easiest way to make it happen. 2. I share my strategies for creating incidental movements throughout the day. 3. We use technology to our advantage by holding ourselves accountable to step counts and be a little competitive about it. 4. We check the ego at the door to take baby steps as every small step forward is progress rather than failing. 5. We take the no excuse approach to simply find something we like and enjoy!
