The Power of Movement Snacks

Lets face it: most of us are spending way too much time sitting and juggling a million things

throughout the day. We understand it can be challenging to prioritize exercise. But here’s the

good news- you don’t always need a full workout to move better and feel better!

What are movement snacks?

Movement snacks are short bursts of activity sprinkled throughout the day. Think of them as

bite-sized motions that keep your body and mind engaged and energized. They are accessible

to everyone as all you need is a few minutes and a willingness to move.

The benefits of movement snacks:

Energy boost: Just a few minutes of physical activity can release endorphins that assist with

motivating and exciting your body and mind.

Enhances flexibility and posture: Movement improves blood circulation and lubricates your

joints. This can improve flexibility, release muscle tension, and promote better posture.

Stress Relief: When you are feeling overwhelmed, movement snacks help create happy

hormones.

Improves focus and concentration: Increased activity brings blood flow to your brain, supplying it

with fresh oxygen and nutrients. This surge of brainpower boosts creativity, enhances cognitive

function, and empowers you to tackle tasks throughout your busy day.

Reinforces Rehab Progress: Incorporating prescribed exercises into your day can boost

recovery- even in small doses!

Even in the midst of a busy day, small, consistent movement snacks can have a big impact on

how you feel and function. So, give yourself permission to pause, breathe, and move to nourish

your body and soul.
