Sharing the True Gift of Health
Looking for a true gift, one to give or receive? There may be no gift more valuable than a few simple ideas for lifelong health.
“The first wealth is health.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Most people are passionate about sharing ideas about healthy living. An important piece of the healthy living puzzle is fitness; also simply called ‘motion’. We are all designed for motion; our health depends on it. The challenge is getting moving and staying moving through repetitive motions that can sometimes result in fatigue, discomfort, pain, injury … perhaps even surgery and ‘re-hab’.
But what if a preventative ‘pre-hab’ fitness program existed that could address this challenge? What if some simple principles of nature can empower anyone to get moving efficiently and stay moving with greater enjoyment and consistency?
I feel very fortunate that someone passionate about sharing suggested ChiRunning® to me four years ago almost to the day. I can still picture the whole conversation, I can hear the words and feel the AHA moment sensing that it could just be that simple. In those few moments, everything changed for me.
Consider the gift of efficient, injury-free running or walking for yourself or someone you know. ChiRunning (“chee-running”) and ChiWalking apply simple principles of nature to help us get back to moving ‘naturally’. It is just that simple.
On the ChiRunningand ChiWalking websites there are many online (free!) resources as well as published materials to support your safe and effective lifelong fitness program.
A very happy holiday season to you; and as always … my best to our great health.
