Starting can be the hardest part - but with simple strategies (including the bonus 4th one) in place it does not have to be!
Don’t rely on motivation.
Set yourself up with these tips and moving your body for wellness will become a habit. Once you start moving, the endorphins will do the rest!
I’ve been thinking about my own journey back to running. It’s taken a long time. I started with walking for one hour in the bush once a week. No negotiations.
Then slowly started jogging one minute on, one minute off and slowly built it up to 5, 6,7,8 Kms.
I was thinking the other day, how long it took but by having a realistic goal where I dedicated one walk a week it’s progressed into one run a week. Still not at marathon race distances but happy to say the habit and joy is cemented .. which supports my mental health not just for that week but has over a long period of time now.
Which tip are you going to try first?
