Walking and Breathing Activities
Ready for more? There are lots of easy ways to maintain whole health and wellbeing.
Just Start Walking
Walking is a terrific form of exercise. It strengthens your body and helps position your spine in the natural shape it was designed for – being upright. An active spine is a healthy spine, and a healthy spine leads to a healthier life.
It can be as easy as...
• A stroll around the block or to the corner shops.
• Catch up with a friend for a walk before a coffee.
• Visit your local park and enjoy the benefits of sunshine and nature too.
Proper Sleep
The hours you’re asleep are important for restoring back muscles, bones, ligaments and discs. Investing in good bedding is an investment in your health and will mean you wake up feeling well-rested and ready for the day! Make sure that you get some good ventilation in your bedroom.
It can be as easy as...
• Choosing the right pillow to match your sleep position.
• Getting some expert advice from a company like Sleepyhead.
Breath Work
Deep breathing exercises can slow the heart rate and help activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which controls our rest state. Focusing on our breathing calms the body and mind and is a very helpful practice for our mental health.
