Why now is a good time to get your groove on
How to lift your mood through dancing.
Dancing is not only a fantastic way to get the blood pumping, but it’s also fun and freeing and you usually end up with a big smile on your face while you’re at it.
Like any form of movement, it can trigger a burst of those ‘feel good’ brain chemicals endorphins, but it comes with a side of extra benefits too.
If you’re remembering the steps to a specific dance you’re giving both your brain and your body a good workout.
And if you’re going with the flow, well that’s a chance to be creative and express yourself in whatever way feels right.
Dancing is not just for the clubs it’s for everywhere!
Try these moments to have a quick boogie and see how good you feel:
In your chairs with your colleagues. No moves are too silly.
When you’re stopped at the lights, get those shoulders jumping.
Once you get home from work - shake off your cares from the day.
While you’re doing the housework. Those chores just got more enjoyable.
After that first sip of your morning coffee - start the day with a shimmy.
When you’ve got your headphones on and you’re out for a walk. Step it up with style.
