Staying motivated to exercise regularly can be challenging for most people. This can also be more challenging for those who may have recently lost a spouse or whom are regularly alone. Installing the habit of regular exercise is important to living a long and full independent life and gathering the energy to do it each week can be difficult if you don't have anyone to exercise with or someone there to help push you along. Luckily there are things you can do to help keep you motivated no matter you situation.

In This Episode You Will Learn:

1). Why it can be challenging to stay inspired to workout each week especially if you are by yourself or live alone.

2). How living in a community with many others can help keep you motivated to stay active whether in a group setting or small social circle.

3). How exercising outside can help keep you inspired to exercise especially in nicer weather.

4). Why finding things to help you look forward to your exercise time like listening to audio books or your favorite music is helpful to keeping you motivated.

5). The importance of implementing a "reward system" around your exercise schedule and how that can help you stay inspired to reach your health goals.

We hope the tips in the episode are helpful to you or someone you know who may be alone. To be alone is not necessarily a bad thing, especially if you already exercise regularly. But for some it can be life changing, especially if it is because of the loss of a loved one. Don't give up on your health and fitness goals, you are too important to not embrace some form of exercise even if you have to find the motivation within. We believe in you!
