Sometimes words will not be enough to comfort you, but movement will. Movement can give you a euphoric feeling. Have you heard of runner’s high? It’s that exhilarating feeling you get when you exercise as the body releases endorphins or feel-good hormones. You have to get on your feet and move to feel it.

Alas, a small voice inside you whispers, “I don’t want to move.”

There are days when you can’t drag yourself to work out. You find yourself making excuses. You say to yourself that it’s too cold in the morning and you can’t get out of bed. You claim that you have more important things to do, and you can’t squeeze in a workout in your schedule. However, your physical health is just as important as your work.

Taking steps to ensure that you have a healthy body is a process. There will be days when you’re fired up to do some cardio and some days when you will feel too sluggish to move. Your slow days are part of the process, and you can always go back to square one.

While you can’t control every aspect of your life, you can seize the things that are within arm’s length or the things you have power over. For the things you cannot touch, let them go and release the stress that makes you feel helpless.
