Can't commit to a full workout regime or highly restrictive diet? You don't need to.

Health and wellness come not from a magic pill, diet, or program, but from gradually transforming your current lifestyle into a healthy one, day by day.

Tip #28: Play!

There is certainly a need and time for intentional, scheduled exercise.  However, part of leading a healthier lifestyle is being active even when you're not at the gym, on a walk, on a run or at Zumba.  Enjoy getting exercise during regular daily activities and have a ball being active on the weekends.

Try these out...

Go on a hike
Walk through the zoo
Play with your kids (or any kids) in the back yard
Dance
Play basketball, football, etc...
Go on a family walk
Go on a bike ride
Plant a garden
Clean your house...well
Go to a park and PLAY (yes, adults are allowed to play)
Babysit young children
Take a dog on a walk

I'm sure you can come up with much better ideas than I have.  The idea is to just get moving!  Don't be a slave to your tv/computer/phone this weekend...try something new.
