Make a Splash with Creative Thinking

11/29/2013

" I do my most creative thinking as I am swimming laps and I had a brainwave for a creative project I am working on. Plus the swimming always revitalizes me and gives me the energy to get through the busy and stressful times."

Empowerment

11/25/2013

"I move because it makes me feel better - about myself, my body, my health, my energy! I like that at 35 years of age I can still play soccer and compete with women 10-15 years younger than me. I like that I can still fit the same jeans that I wore in high school. I like that I can be an example for the people around me. Most of all, I like that feeling of empowerment that comes after exercise!"

"I move because I have a family history of heart disease and I know that exercise will help me age well. I am specifically inspired by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada's commercial - Make Health Last - what will your last ten years look like. 

I want to be one of those 90 year olds that has more energy than most 50 year olds :)"

How Small Amounts Equal Big Gains

11/21/2013

"I move for many reasons, and the one I wanted to share today was why I move at work. I try and go to the little fitness centre they have here at work. I go there at lunch to maintain my sanity, to keep my energy up and to just feel better about what I have accomplished. It's amazing how even after 10 minutes I feel a million times better. Even the most ridiculous of stress seem a bit more easier to handle after a short workout."

Feel More Alive

11/14/2013

0 Comments

 
"I move to feel more alive. I always feel better when I get up and do something physically active. Then afterwards, I feel invigorated and ready to tackle the tasks and stresses of the day (or the rest of day if I exercise after work). Physical activity also calms my mind and lowers my stress, so I handle upcoming stress better (less yelling at the kids, LOL)."

Seeing the Great Views of Life

"To get exercise so I can do the other things I like such as hike up a mountain to see the spiritual view. To be mobile, healthy, to enjoy life and maintain independence. Socially, my friends are active and I enjoy being with them."
