Get Moving

The old saying, “Use it or lose it” applies here. Research has shown that bed rest or a sedentary lifestyle can actually slow your recovery.

Brisk Walking

Regular exercise is crucial for countless bodily functions. Aerobic exercise can aid the healing process. That doesn’t mean you have to invest in expensive club memberships or the latest exercise equipment! Something as simple and inexpensive as regular swimming at a community pool or 20 minutes of brisk walking every other day can produce beneficial results.

Lift Your Spirits

As you are able, participate in activities that can safely raise your heart rate and increase your endurance. Park your car in an outlying spot and walk. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Look for ways to burn calories and remain active. Besides improving your strength and vitality, you’ll enjoy a lift in your spirits as endorphins are released. Need some guidance? Just ask.
