Let's Get Moving!


One thing is for sure – there will be no change toward our healthy lifestyle without action – that is to say physical action. Yes, that means exercise! In order to create change in your life you must have action and regular exercise must be a part of your plan for success.

But please don’t let physical exercise scare you; instead you should embrace it as one of the biggest factors for your success. I have seen many times how daily exercise can be that one thing that motivates people beyond where they thought they could go. The key to a successful exercise program is to create a habit for it and a desire to do it daily. But we all know that is easier said than done and it can be very difficult to start and continue on with because we have lots of excuses on why we can’t do it, right? We are either too tired, or there isn’t any time, it’s too late, too early, it’s cloudy outside, etc… But the funny thing is that once we commit to it daily and form that habit we start to love it. Because the benefits of exercise go beyond the physical effects, there are mental benefits as well, the release of endorphins in the brain cause a positive change in our attitude. With this new attitude we feel better about ourselves, have more energy and motivation to succeed.

So let’s face it, God didn’t create us to be sedentary creatures but instead had us tending the garden from the very beginning. Physical activities are part of who God created us to be and we should strive to reach our full potential. Our bodies and minds need physical exercise to be healthy – so Let’s Get Moving!

Let's Get Healthy,
