OK, the New Year is approaching and it's time for those NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS...
I am the biggest offender of not exercising (though I used to)...
Exercise not only helps you burn those unwated calories, get you into shape, increase your metabolic rate, it also improves mood. Did you know that due to the chemicals it releases in the brain called endorphins, it gives you an overall feeling of well-being. This is the same chemical that being in love or eating chocolate induces!
Don't you love how your body feels after a good workout... exercise also motivates you to eat healthier...
Exercise does not have to be a drab. There are many forms of exercise that are fun like dancing or playing a sport you enjoy...
Have you ever watched a movie or an event that inspires you to get your butt off the couch and do something physical? I remember after watching GI Jane, I wanted to run a marathon...
"I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself."
- David Herbert Lawrence
So what motivates you?
