Total-Body Benefits of Tone Mid Section Workout

Self - Care : This really means taking care of yourself, so you can stay healthy and accomplish all the things you need and want to. Movement of the body, health, nutrition, sleep and resting needs are all fundamental to your self - care.

Emotional self-care is an activity like positive self-talk.

Physical self-care is about committing to an exercise routine.

Spiritual self - care is all about meditation or mindfulness.

It is also important to consider psychological, social, professional, environmental and financial aspects that all contribute to your own personal self - care.

Engaging in a self-care routine has been clinically proven to reduce or eliminate anxiety and depression, reduce stress, improve concentration, minimize frustration and anger, increase happiness, improve energy and much more. Studies show that consistent exercise is linked to increased productivity and mental focus. This means that exercising regularly can help you become more focused and present with your partner, children and with yourself. Letting go of self-inflicted guilt is an important part of building self-care through exercise. 

Regular exercise can increase self-confidence, improve your mood, help you relax and lower symptoms of mild depression and anxiety. Exercise can also improve your sleep, which is often disrupted by stress, depression and anxiety. Exercise releases natural endorphins, and adrenaline in your brain. These chemicals work together to make you feel good. Exercise can improve your mood and help your body to feel more relaxed and calm.

There are lots of easy ways to practice self-care :

  • Eat a healthy meal
  • Engage in exercise
  • Go for a walk
  • Drink water
  • Practice good sleep hygiene
  • Sit in the sunlight
  • Take a shower or bath

Self - Care is more than exercise and working out - it's so important to look after yourself!

Community & Motivation : Being part of a community really can support and help you in so many ways, not only by holding you accountable but also inspiring you and learning from each other, as well as working together and growing! Your motivation will improve, as our BTES community is filled with encouragement. Working out with other people creates a high level of motivation among one another, especially when someone has a good day! Think of ways to convey unconditional support to a friend or partner taking up exercise. Such as ... "I love that we can do this together" or "It's great that you're able to push yourself while you're here.''

Motivation is defined as the reason why you are doing something or the level of desire you have to do something. Motivation is an important factor in everyday life. Our basic behaviours and feelings are affected by our inner drive to succeed over life's challenges while we set goals for ourselves. Our motivation also promotes our feelings of competence and self-worth, as we achieve our goals.

Finding ways to increase motivation is crucial because it allows us to change behaviour, develop competencies, be creative, set goals, grow interests, make plans, develop talents and boost engagement. Motivation will help in self-development of individual.
