Moving Into Fall

We made it another week, Byte Wellness Fam!

This week’s Self-Love Letter is going to be short and sweet…so you can save all the time you would’ve spent reading our usual multi-paragraph odes to #Blackladyselfcare and MOVE!

Our Daily Wellness Text thread this month is all about movement, its understated health benefits, and ways to get more of it.

Get in on the conversation by texting TEXT to 1(224)302-6224!

We started the month with a set of discussion questions:

This Month’s Discussion Questions on Movement:

This next month is all about making movement work for us!

Do you plan to be more physically active this month?
If yes, how successful do you think you will be?
These seem like simple questions, but they’re actually pretty deep. Go ahead, think them through, and give honest answers.

Talk these questions over with your friends and family and co-workers. Take the opportunity to challenge yourself and others on your assumptions about what it takes to get to the next level of activity.

Like… if you’re not as active as you’d like to be right now, what changes are you making to ensure you actually reach your goal.

Are they the same changes you were unsuccessful at making in the past? Should you think more creatively about how to make different changes that will give you a greater chance of success?

I’m just saying. Being real with ourselves goes a long way toward reaching wellness goals.

Let’s Move!
Okay, now I’m letting you go so you can go for a walk, ride your bike, do some dancing…whatever gets you moving!
