Mind + Body Challenge 2
Good Morning,
OK challenge two- You don’t have to dress like Olivia Newton-John to get physical!
You could organise a walk with a friend or go out on your own. Physical activity contributes to a healthy lifestyle. 30 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity most days of the week is recommended for good health. Moderate intensity means at a level that increases your heart rate but doesn’t leave you so breathless that you can’t talk.
The benefits of exercise include:
- Feeling less stressed and more relaxed
- Improved sleep
- More energy and less fatigue
- Feeling more confident and happy
- Helping you make friends
- Having stronger bones and muscles
- Managing your weight
I know most of you have heard these health messages before and the tricky bit is getting out there and actually doing it. Finding the motivation.....

Re: Mind + Body Challenge 2
Oh good question Catriona!
This song by David Getta has a good pace to it. It starts slow... like a walk.. then builds up to a jogging pace. I can jog for long periods of time, so this allows me to gradually work up to it 🙂
