Nana's BeeLine: So Little Time

Buzzin's

Time Time Time! We all have to deal with the judicious spending of our precious 24 hours each day. Family. Work. Me Time. Let's jump straight to the Me Time thing. Most of us feel so guilty taking Me Time. GET OVER IT! It is very necessary/important. Me Time is what keeps us going, grounded, focused. Part of your Me Time is the exercise...yes exercise/activity! You can't take care of your responsibilities unless you are healthy, fit, and ready. Healthy eating and exercise should be part of your day. If you are like me I always thought, "I don't have time or money to go to the gym so I guess I won't do anything!" Holy Moly! That was an excuse. I found there are a zillion other things that will fill that spot and get us fitter than we are right now and that don't require extra anything. And easy too. Hold the Presses: Seriously? YUP! In only 10 minutes you can do yourself some real good! A study showed that people who got 72 minutes a week (10 minutes a day) exercise improved their fitness level more than those who worked out longer...how about them healthy apples??? And you know you have 10 minutes. While you are on the phone, stuck at the airport, shopping, watching TV. NOTE: All movement counts. Now is the time to use the tools you have available to help you and make it more fun. E-tools (Fitness Tab has 10 minute workouts and videos), ActiveLink (Now that is really fun! You can see your progress and set our own goals. It is awesome! Learn more by clicking on the link below) Pedometer. Or just use our head to come up with something that will fit YOUR lifestyle and that you WILL do...both are key in all this. Make this the week you get in 10 minutes a day. It doesn't have to be the same thing, every day is different. JUST DO!!! (to quote Yoda)

T*A*I*S!
