Step into Wellness: Move More & Reduce Stress

April is all about movement and mindfulness! It’s Move More Month and Stress Awareness Month, and we’re kicking things off with National Walking Day on April 2nd—a perfect reminder to get up, get moving, and prioritize your well-being.

🚶Why Walking Matters:

• Just 30 minutes of brisk walking can boost heart health, improve circulation, and enhance mood.
• Walking reduces stress hormones like cortisol, helping you feel calmer and more focused.
• Taking 8,000–10,000 steps daily has been linked to a lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, and dementia.
  

💡 How to Move More This Month:
✔️ Schedule daily walking breaks—morning, midday, or evening.
✔️ Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
✔️ Walk and talk during phone calls.
✔️ Set a step goal—start small and build up!
