Ok so this is one of my special interests, so I’m sorry for the info dump. and it not being a specific tip, but I got excited!!! I’m more motivated to move now more than I ever have been because I stopped trying to exercise, stopped thinking of doing a set event where I’m focused on getting fitter or thinner or stronger! Instead I have found ways I enjoy playing and moving in my body that I always enjoy and trying to move more in general. I free dance/move around super weird. I free stretch/ move around super weird. I work on my posture and alignment/stand or lie around weirdly. I walk. Anywhere will do. Around the block can be as good as a elaborate hike. I really enjoy seeing the places change through the seasons. I think about my posture and try to be in my body and the present when I’m walking. I use movement as meditation. When I’m at home, I practice handstands when I’m walking to the toilet or waiting for something in the kitchen. etc… I’m a loner so my activities are solo, but if you have family or friends to do activities with, you could do a bigger range of activities. Anything from disk golf with friends, to climbing up the stairs with your kids while pretending its Mt Everest. Any way and any time spent in your body can be exercise, in its benefits, if not in style! I am more happy with how I feel in body and how it functions, from just generally moving more, and more mindfully, than when I lifted for 3 hours a day or ran etc. i feel so much happier and more alive than when i always felt guilty for not wanting to force myself to do exercise for x amount of hours y times a week.
TLDR: Move in anyway you want, for as long or short a time you have, whenever you can. It can become second nature to be active when its dispersed throughout your life.
