MESSAGE #339 STRESS RELIEF…

One of the best forms of stress relief is exercise. You can go to the gym, go for a run or play some tennis. It doesn’t matter what you do as long as you do something. Ask Michael Jordan…

“When I step onto the court, I don’t have to think about anything. If I have a problem off the court, I find that after I play, my mind is clearer and I can come up with a better solution. It’s like therapy. It relaxes me and allows me to solve problems.”

-Michael Jordan

So incorporate fitness into your daily routine. I call it “preventive medicine” because you don’t want to wait until you are sick or injured to start taking care of your body. And don’t give me that “Well, I’m not THAT out of shape” nonsense. You only have one body…make it work for you and make it last. Your physical health will help your mental health and your mental health will help your physical health.

The next time you feel stressed, do something active. Or better yet, exercise regularly and PREVENT stress.
