How to say the S word without cringing

Are you a proactive person?

If you have your Christmas presents all bought already, then you definitely are!

I, on the other hand, am happy I've got all my Halloween candy bought this past week.


Being prepared and having a plan is one key strategy to being a more physically active person.


Why you may ask?

Because when excuses and obstacles come up (they will!) and challenge your ability to move, the plan is there to support you.


One way I can help you today, is to assist you with your planning.


We all know come Halloween, the days start to get colder and potentially the days get shorter (all my Canadian subscribers know this more than ever!!)


And with the change of season, we may need to make some adjustments particularly related to any outdoor activities we may choose.


I say a little prayer every October that the snow (yes, I said it) doesn't arrive until after Halloween. Poor kids traipsing through snow on October 31. I've done it before, have you?

Yet we know the S word is on its way at some point.


There is no time like the present to prepare and today I'm sharing a video with you that I wrote the script and "starred" in many years back. The content is still relevant as we move into the colder season.

NOTE: Although the audience was walking leaders, you too are your very own walking leader! The advice still applies.

Insight to Action:

​

What is one suggestion from the video you could implement in your physical activity (it doesn't have to be only walking) to make sure you have a plan for the winter months?

• Update your winter clothing gear?

 

• Learn how to calculate apparent temperature?

 

• Invest in a pair of walking poles?

I invite you to start planning before the S word arrives! ❄️


Stay well and happy moving,

Lisa
