Beyond serving as an excellent creative outlet, it can also have a therapeutic effect on mental health. The slow, mindful movements and gentle sensory stimulation associated with the practice have been shown to reduce stress and promote relaxation.
For those seeking a slightly more physical practice, the art of tai chi offers a unique blend of gentle movement and meditative focus. Rooted in ancient Chinese tradition, it promotes balance, flexibility, and mental clarity through a series of postures and controlled breathing. It’s also low-impact enough to be accessible to all fitness levels and easy to incorporate into most daily routines.
While perhaps a bit unusual, herbalism can be a rewarding and educational wellness hobby for anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors. Start by reading some basic books on the subject to familiarize yourself with the medicinal properties of plants, then create your own garden where you can cultivate the flowers and herbs that you feel drawn to. You’ll be able to reap all of the benefits of connecting with nature as you foster a sense of holistic well-being and self-sufficiency.

]]>Jump rope, fun as it may be, is basically just jumping in place over and over again, something that definitely can get your heart rate up and help you work on plyometric power. Experiment with different variations to further challenge your body.
Hula hooping actually requires quite a bit of strength as you use the muscles of your core, glutes, hamstrings, and calves to keep the hula hoop in constant motion. It’s a great low-impact exercise and warm-up.
If you can get your hands on a skip-it again, you’ll find that this toy, which requires you to swing a ball on a rope around one leg while jumping over it with the other, really burns some serious calories.

]]>September is a great time to go on long walks and explore the place where you live. You can head to the nearest park or plan a day outside of the city. Speed walking is just as great as hiking in nature and they can effectively replace your time on the treadmill.
Apple picking can be an amazing family activity, especially if you have small children. Kids just love being outside and doing something new, so if they’ve never experienced the joys of apple picking, you can take them this September.
If there is a place where you can go swimming and the weather allows it, make sure to use the opportunity now that there aren’t crowds anymore. Late summer swimming is very special and you can create memories to last a lifetime.

]]>As long as you avoid crowds, walking and running outside are safe and desirable. Make sure to do it alone or with someone with whom you live so you don’t get into risky contacts. Wearing a mask while walking and running can be difficult, which is why choosing areas with no people is crucial.
The similar is true for cycling. Take your bike and go explore remote areas, but if you’re using a bike for transport and go among people, make sure you wear a mask.
While swimming pools are considered a medium risk, it’s best to stay out of them for now. But you can enjoy a day at the beach and swimming in saltwater. Again, this is only safe if the beach isn’t crowded. If you have plenty of space for yourself and don’t get in contact with other people on the beach, you shouldn’t worry.

]]>Once your slow cooker is set, nothing prevents you from going out and being active outside. Even a short walk will do wonders for your physical and mental health, so put on your sneakers and just go outside.
It would be so easy to get a book and sit on the balcony or the backyard for a few hours, but try to use the time you gained by not being required to stir the meal every five minutes to get active with your kids. Run around with them and play without any plan, it will be good for both you and them.
When it comes to working out at home, many people believe they don’t have time to do it. Make it a habit to do a workout the first thing after you put the food in the slow cooker, and after you’re done, you can treat yourself to a nice bath.

]]>Our best tip is to try everything at least once and see if it works for you. This is also true for kickboxing, as it may not be appealing to everyone but it’s a perfect fit for some people. The workout session happens in a group class where you won’t fight anyone but the air and punching bags. Kickboxing is one of the best ways to destress so it can be great for people who do intellectually demanding jobs and/or sit at the desk all day.
Kickboxing may not be right for the absolute beginners, at least those who aren’t up for a challenge. It’s a high-impact workout that may be too intense if you haven’t worked out in a while. However, it targets your whole body and you will soon be able to see and feel improvements.

]]>Some of the benefits of swimming include:
Children who learn how to swim at an early age are more likely to build a healthy life with plenty of activity. But even those who didn’t learn to swim as kids shouldn’t worry, as this skill can be mastered at any point in life.
And let’s not forget about all the fun activities connected to swimming! You can enjoy the days on the beach a lot more, go to the pool whenever you feel like it, or try some water sports. Thanks to public pools available pretty much everywhere, you can practice swimming all year long, but we’re the most thankful for it in the summer when it gets hot.

]]>If you’re lucky enough to have some outdoor space at home, get some activity from working in the garden! If you work for an hour or two you can count it as exercise as it will help you burn a lot of calories while doing something useful.
Pack a basket and invite your partner or family to a picnic in nature! You can bring your favorite foods and drinks and enjoy a nice day outside away from the crowds. Running around with the kids will lead to an active day filled with happy memories.
You can burn plenty of calories by walking, and acting like a tourist for one day and walking around the city will help you get a new perspective on the place where you live. Pack some snacks and water and head out without a firm plan or an idea when you will be back.

]]>We don’t know a single person who hates dancing! Even if you’re too shy to do it in front of the others, nothing prevents you from blasting some music and making a dance party at home. You can burn a lot of calories while having fun.
Taking care of your garden counts as an activity! Chances are there’ll be a lot of squatting, bending, digging, and other movements, so 30 minutes per day is enough to consider your workout done. Plus, you’ll have the most beautiful garden in the neighborhood!
Similar applies to all household chores. Wash your car, vacuum the floors, put the dishes away. Before you know it, you’ll get your heart rate up and your home will look so much better.

]]>Whenever you can, use the stairs instead of an elevator. Going up and down a few floors will make your heart pump faster and that’s always good, especially if you aren’t too active on a daily basis.
Give yourself half an hour more to run errands and skip the car or transport. This, of course, depends on where you live, but try to add at least half an hour of walking every day if possible.
Many people find it easier to be active when they make a commitment to someone else, and that someone can easily be a dog who requires walking a few times per day. This is a great option if you work from home and spend most of your day inside.
