January is recognized as Mental Wellness Month! Take the first steps to promote well-being. Exercise is a great place to start! Here are some tips from the National Institute of Health:

Get Moving With Others

Build your network. Find a group for people with shared interests, like a walking, hiking, dancing, or biking club.

Make a shared routine. Commit to a walking schedule with a neighbor, family member, or friend.

Be accountable. Share your physical activity goals with people you trust. Ask for their support.

Take a class. Try a yoga, tai chi, or fitness class with a friend. You can even take a virtual class online with a friend in another town.

Join a team. Look for local softball, soccer, or other sports teams.

Family activity. Join your kids for a bike ride or throw a ball around before starting on homework or chores.

Get dancing. Go to a local dance, take dance classes, or dance with family at home.

Move more at work. Join worksite wellness and walking groups.

Physical activity can improve your health, mood, and energy levels. But sometimes, inspiration to get moving may be lacking. That’s when social connections can help.
