Some days are more inspirational than others. Some days everyone wants to sit on the couch and do nothing. When you ask someone to visualize a relaxing day, usually they visualize sitting in front of the tv, and if they are really active, sitting by the pool having a beer or cocktail. There is nothing inherently wrong with this, if like everything else, it is done in moderation. But ask yourself this simple question: Is this all I really want to do all the time?
When you were a child, did you dream of spending your days watching television sitting on your couch? The point is anything can be relaxing…..even strenuous activity. Just ask any athlete. Many play because it is a great stress relief. Sure it keeps them in amazing shape, but they also do it to balance their lives, relieve stress, and feel more alive.
Every day is a gift. Treat it that way. Live your life the way you dreamed about when you were a child. Get out, move, play and exercise. And guess what? It is never too late to get yourself back to the place where you have the freedom to physically do what you want. Your body is so amazing that even if you have treated it poorly for years, within a few months of treating it right, you can have your old body back again!
Give yourself the gift of vitality and energy so that as time passes you can still take care of yourself, play with your children, your grandchildren, and even your great grandchildren.
