I like exercises that are short and not too demanding.
Here are a couple of my favorites that I do in the morning to get my energy going.
5 minute Tai Chi Energy Movement https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEOS2zoyQw4
Complete beginner yoga https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7AYKMP6rOE
What is your favorite form of exercise.
@soulsings thank you for the links. i noticed the yoga one is old school yoga with adriene. i started watching her yoga videos years ago when she was just starting so i'm partial to her older videos lol her newer ones are good just a little too perfected almost?
@fearlessWriter78 Thanks for sharing your thoughts, with us.
@soulsings Thanks for sharing.
I love doing meditation.
@soulsings
I like playing sports and/or surfing as an exercise, because then I forget that I actually am exercising :)
@adventureawaits777 good thinking!
@adventureawaits777 Glad to hear this.
I walk a alot can be done anywhere and you can see all sorts of things on a walk
when home in bad weather there are many videos on you- tube and trying them to
a) see if i can do them / B) completing a video gives me a real sense of accomplishment
@toughTiger6481 I agree that a sense of accomplishment happens and makes me feel good.
@toughTiger6481 Glad to hear this.
Since my schedule is really busy I can hardly introduce mindfulness exercises, so I don't do much just make sure to have a 30 minutes or 1 hour walk daily but thanks a lot for sharing those videos I'll check them out soon and probably try them as well 😊
@ThoughtsBubbleExpress walking is great exercise.
@ThoughtsBubbleExpress That is nice.
There shorter meditation videos, that you can watch.
Just wanted to point that out.
Ah I see. Thanks a lot. For meditation and mindfulness, I use the medito app
@soulsings
Zumba dance! 😊 I love dancing and Zumba dance helps me to stay fit and makes me feel good and it is pure fun to me!
@amiablePeace77 sounds like a lot of fun.
@soulsings
It is for sure! Dancing is such a great way for me to relax.
@amiablePeace77 I am so glad you enjoy it.
Exercises are a torture
@considerateMoon9060 It does not have to be.
Take meditation for example, it takes very little effort to do.
It does however, take some getting us to.
It's painful, it hurts like hell to stay in the same position
@considerateMoon9060 I hear you. Sitting in one position can be uncomfortable.
That is why I practice mindfulness while moving and doing chores. It still helps me be mindful.
Which are also excruciatingly painful?
@considerateMoon9060 I am very sorry your struggling with pain.
If the exercises causes you discomfort, then do less of them, just a thought.
Another thought is if they cause to much pain, then stop doing them all together and find something else, ok?
Also, if the pain continues, please seek medical attention, if needed.
I hope this helps.
@considerateMoon9060
I hear you considerateMoon9060. Some of them feel so heavy and are also boring to me. It took me a while to find out what I really like but now choosing the right exercise is much easier.
You don't understand, even ones that are not heavy are a torture for me. I have "butterfly skin", not as bad as you might see on TV, but bad enough that every little thing can hurt me.
@considerateMoon9060
I'm so sorry considerateMoon9060 💙 I can see now how difficult things in life can become for you. I hope that coming here will help you to cope.
No, and I don't need to cope with anything. You guys are only making things worse
@considerateMoon9060 I'm not sure how they're making things worse? Everyone is trying to be supportive 😕 Maybe you can give us an idea how we can best do that. What can we do to help?
Leave me alone, maybe?
Swimming in a warm pool helps me focus on myself and my surroundings.
@xandia
Swimming in a warm pool sounds very relaxing!
@xandia Glad to hear this.
@soulsings I really like walking because it's low-impact, but you can adjust it in so many ways! I like the 12-3-30 workout because it burns so many calories in only 20 or 30 minutes!
@fruityPond7887 Thanks for sharing.
@Happy900 Of course! Happy to! :)
Closing our mouth(unnecessarily eating or unnecessarily talking) for awhile is the greatest exercise we can ever find.
@SoulPitstop So true.
@soulsings My favourite exercise would definitely be dance
@yourbuddy30 I hear you!
I think of Tai Chi as slow motion dancing.
@yourbuddy30 Love your response.
Thanks for sharing.
