As the world struggles to find its footing, we know you are working extremely long hours. Along with advocating for your patients and coping with the continued uncertainty of COVID-19, you may now have to home school your children and/or take care of aging parents. As a nurse, you are probably putting everyone ahead of yourself. But now more than ever, is the time to be gentle with yourself, and that includes being physically active to help maintain your health and wellbeing.

During our May Work (Out) From Home challenge, powered by support from Humana, we will offer you tips on how to exercise indoors and find activities that resonate with you. It doesn’t have to be anything big or major, let's simply get moving.

This will be fun, relaxing, and achievable. For instance, never underestimate of the value of dancing as a workout, making wall snow angels or doing chair squats. Or go in a more meditative direction of incorporating some yoga, tai chi, or qi gong into your day.

Though this challenge ended in May, 2020, you are welcome to challenge yourself to try it. Invite a colleague or friend to join you! Are you ready? Get Started here.

I walk for 30 to 60 minutes every day and take a virtual Pilates lesson in my home office 3-4 times a week.  Feeling stronger and more focused.

Have selected two areas: 1) bedroom on bed or 2) sitting on sofa in living room. Floor to ceiling windows in both areas, but window coverings; so private; and undisturbed as I live alone.
