Submitted Healthy Tip of the Week: If you want to feel healthier, more energized, or in a better mood, get moving! Regular exercise can benefit both your physical and mental health in a multitude of ways. You don’t need to run a half-marathon to reap the rewards. If you’re an adult, just 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity a week, or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week, can positively impact your health. That breaks down to around 22 minutes a day of moderate-intensity exercise, like brisk walking, dancing, cycling, doing yard work, or household chores. As long as you’re moving and not sitting still, it counts.
