Benefits of regular exercise:

• exercise increases gut microbes that assist in the production of short-chain fatty acids. These fatty acids reduce the risk of inflammatory diseases as well as type 2 diabetes, obesity, and heart disease

• exercise strengthens your heart and improves your circulation. The increased blood flow raises the oxygen levels in your body

• regular exercise can also lower your blood pressure and triglyceride levels

It is important to communicate what you feel, and to understand the needs and wants of the other.

Asking someone where you stand can feel uncomfortable, especially as we usually prepare for rejection. We tend to give our power away. But it is just as uncomfortable for the other as well. So, to feel centred and certain about standing your ground, will give the other the same power to let their feelings out and trust you. Even if this means the relationship will end.
