Being active has many benefits such as feeling more energized, being able to withstand stress, decreasing the risk of illness and increasing your focus, all of these being welcome aspects both at work and in our personal lives. Ditch the car and walk/cycle to work. Take active breaks, grab a friend and set a step challenge. Make it fun and make it part of your day; before you know it, being active will be as normal as picking up your cell phone to scroll Instagram at lunch.
