Replacing exercise with movement
A good starting point is to try and reframe the negative thinking about exercise and set aside any of the ‘should’ statements you tell yourself about it. Replacing exercise with the concept of movement might help. Just as there so many varieties of fruit and vegetables that we are bound to find at least one that we like, there are also loads of activities that get the body moving and aren’t typically considered ‘exercise’ in the sense we usually think of it.
