You don’t have to move fast to stay healthy — you just have to keep moving. As we get older, it’s not about pushing harder, but about staying consistent and kind to your body. A slow walk around the block, gentle stretches in the morning, or even standing up a little more during the day can help keep your muscles active and your joints more comfortable. Movement helps improve balance, supports your heart, and lifts your mood. It also helps with sleep and digestion. The key is to listen to your body. Some days will feel easier than others, and that’s perfectly okay. Moving at your own pace means honoring what your body needs, not what someone else expects. Whether it’s gardening, dancing in the kitchen, or just reaching your arms up with a deep breath — it all counts. Small steps, repeated often, are better than doing nothing at all. Stay gentle, stay steady, and let movement be something that brings you comfort, not pressure.
