5 Reasons Your World Benefits from Prioritizing Time to Exercise!
I want you to take a second and think about your day. What’s on your to-do list? What are you anxious about getting done? What have you been putting on the back burner? Got these images in your mind? Good. Now I want you to close your eyes and think about your happy place. I want you to breathe slowly and imagine your perfect day. Picture how you’d like to feel at the end of your day. Present? Accomplished? Fulfilled? Now open your eyes.

Every time you engage in exercise and self-care, you become a better person for yourself and everyone around you. Below are five major reasons why your world benefits from you prioritizing time to exercise in your life!
