18 Ways to Get Moving (Without Going to the Gym)

Welcome to Day #28 of PureFormulas’ Sugar Crush Challenge: 30 days of tips, recipes, and tools to help you cut down on sugar and crush those cravings!

Twenty minutes of exercise (give or take) is enough to help reduce anxiety and save you from going on a sweet binge during stressful moments.

The words “gym” and “exercise” may sometimes sound like bad words, but the truth is that exercise is not only great to stay in shape, but have you ever noticed how great you felt after you got moving? Gym and exercise don’t have to go hand-in-hand and you can, in fact, do yoga, hike, run, walk, or even dance your anxieties away!

How does moving help with our sense of well-being?

• Your endorphin (a feel-good neurotransmitter) production increases
• You focus your energy on moving and forget the day’s stressful moments
• You get a better night’s sleep
• Your self-confidence and mood increases
