Time 2 Move!

I am a huge proponent of physical activity - it gives us immeasurable physical, mental, emotional and social benefits. I was thrilled to see ParticiPACTION write an open letter to our federal government to support Canadians in being more active and healthy!

A few highlights from the letter:

"Only 16 percent of adults and 39 percent of children and youth in Canada are meeting recommended physical activity levels."

"Physical inactivity is one of the leading risk factors for chronic diseases and death worldwide. Conversely, being physically active can improve and even save lives."

"Physical inactivity costs our healthcare system over $6.8 billion a year. COVID-19 has starkly proven the volatility of this system; investments in physical activity can protect it."

The link to the letter is below and please reach out to me if you'd like help with recoding your beliefs to LOVE physical activity!
