Physical fitness is important to your overall well-being and health. People who are more active are generally healthier, have less difficulty managing their weight, and have fewer risks of health problems. Regular exercise can help relax your mind and ease tension to allow you to have a clear head facing daily challenges in life. Benefits of being active include relieving stress, reducing anxiety, depression, and anger.

Here are some benefits of being active:

• lowering your blood pressure
• increasing your level of good cholesterol
• improving your blood flow
• preventing bone loss that can lead to osteoporosis
• increasing your overall energy levels

Start by making little steps each day like eating healthier and working out or walking. Also, pay attention to your sleeping patterns, making sure you are getting enough rest every night. Remember seven to nine hours is recommended for adults.
