Body movement matters, period.  

I am not saying exercise but movement because it doesn't matter how you move your body, just that you do. That is why playing games is such good fun as playing moves your body as well and infuses your psyche with joy and a feeling of exhilaration.  

So, if you find yourself being resistant to going to a gym or doing some type of formal exercise then try incorporating more play into your life. Body Movement allows you to expel suppressed energies created by stress and strife. 

Moving your body is vital for your wellbeing as it unleashes an internal exuberance that is a soul level correction, a type of rebooting your psyche. Whether it is rolling, swimming, walking, dancing, hiking in nature, climbing, running, playing with pets or some other physical activity. Do not overlook the benefits to be had in everyday activities such as doing household chores with grace and purpose.  

Find out what works best for you as you are more likely to do your physical activity of choice consistently. Moving your body is not about the size or shape of your body but more about feeling at home in it, which can only transpire if you are at peace with it, that is, being totally accepting of your body shape and appreciative of its functionality and grateful for how it enriches your life. 

Your body benefits from movement as it energizes and strengthens you. One just has to look at babies at play, their fascination with their fingers and toes and the endless possibilities that come with that first step. When is the last time you enjoyed your body? How it feels instead of focusing only on how it looks? Recognize that body movement is a celebration of life. It is through movement that you get acquainted with your body, with its strengths and weaknesses. So, go ahead, integrate movement into your everyday to ensure a healthy body and mind.  

Be a friend to your body. Do the things that make your body feel good, like the heady sensation that swinging evokes or the sheer delight that splashing around in water brings. Stop thinking silly movements is just for children, being staid is not doing you any favours. Understand that body movement is valuable for your body, mind and spirit. It helps you to become more self-aware as you explore the capabilities of your mind whilst simultaneously elevating your vitality. 

Go ahead, cultivate the habit of moving your body everyday knowing that it is the best gift you can give yourself as your body simply thrives on daily movement. Your body thrives on movement, as it is movement that causes vibrant energy to flow through it removing blockages, whether mental, emotional or physical. 

Let these quotes awake deep gratitude within you for the good health and delight movement brings you. Have constant appreciation for the delights that your body allows you to experience.  

To keep the body in good health is a duty...otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear - Buddha

Take care of your body, it's the only place you have to live - Jim Rohn 

Your body is your home for this earthly existence and it is your self-love that will determine whether you turn this haven into a hovel or a home. It is your body that allows you to engage with people, pets and the world at large. Without a body you cannot experience the physical pleasures of hugs, kisses and dancing in the rain. Learn to give your body the necessary care so that it will allow you to live your best life. 

We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing - George Bernard Shaw 

Playing around whether it is rolling, tumbling or straight up jumping around undeniably delights your psyche as a surge of internal exuberance and joy floods your senses when you engage in play. Twinkling eyes and a zest for life is the reward that playing imbues you with, no matter your age.

Movement is the song of the body - Banda Caravelli 

After vigorous movement one can often hear the echo of the exuberant tune that hummed vibrationally through your body whilst it was in motion. To hear the song of the body you must stop being distracted on how it looks. Instead focus on how it feels and hear its song when you move, whether doing everyday actions such as playing, cleaning or walking. Your body is singing with the beat of your heart, the rhythm of your breath and the rush of your energy pulsating through it, blending together to create symphonic harmonies as your body delights at being in motion. 

It is exercise alone that supports the spirits, and keeps the mind in vigour - Marcus Tullius Cicero 

It is movement that will guard your mind and spirit from getting mired in the morass of fear, chaos and societal constraints and melancholy that pervades life. Movement enhances creative thinking and emboldens your spirit to release a limited potential mindset for one that believes life holds endless possibilities. 

Movement is a medicine for creating change in a person’s physical, emotional, and mental states - Carol Welch 

It is movement that rocks you out of complacency and into wholehearted living. Physical activity seems to give you the necessary energetic boost to shake free from negativity and adopt a more hopeful and positive stance.
