How it connects:

Humans evolved to move, and our bodies desire play. We did not evolve to be sedentary in the ways our culture encourages (through work environments and human connection being limited to virtual space). Movement, or lack thereof, has just as much effect on your overall well-being as nourishment. We grew as a species to collect our food and carry out chores without the luxury of machines or other people doing it for us. Movement was built into the cultures our bodies evolved through. Carving out time to move into our daily routine can help compensate for the more sedentary lifestyle our culture succumbs to. The kinds of movement accessible to you may vary from person to person. Depending on your body type, or limitations to range of movement from disability, you may have to make accommodations and adjustments to your movement.
