I like the way you work it, no diggity.

I often find myself fighting off a headache or stomachache. Some of this is genetic, some of it’s anxiety (probably), and some of it probably needs a proper diagnosis. But lately I’ve noticed a surprising amount of relief just from moving my body more. Not formal workouts, just simple, everyday movement. Things like hitting a plastic golf ball around the backyard, taking turns with my kids on the tennis ball-on-a-string, or swimming a lap or two when we’re at the pool. In this season, it’s less about squeezing in a “real” workout and more about keeping my body in motion. This movement goal eases some of these health issues, and gives me a general sense of working towards wellness.
