Walk or exercise every day

Walking or exercising every day can help your body burn calories and make your muscles work. You should exercise for at least thirty minutes every day, especially if your job involves staying in the office all day. According to many recent studies, active people live longer, because their mental and physical health is improved through regular exercise.

So, if you didn’t know this before, exercise can improve your mood, decrease the level of stress and anxiety, making you happier. 

“Exercise contributes to longevity, but not just living longer—living a vital life longer. Exercise decreases the risk of all major health complications, including heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline. Try adding in 15-30 minutes 2-3 times a week to begin, and build from there,” says Sarah Thacker, LPC, health coach, and yoga instructor.
