Many of us feel that way, but most people who become physically active say that physical activity helps them feel better and gives them more energy.
It's important to choose activities that you enjoy because that will motivate you.
Do you like to dance? Why not turn on some music you like and move to the beat?
Do you like nature? Go for a walk and take in the scenery.
Do you like gardening? No yard? Try a balcony garden.
Do you like meeting new people? Check out the programs for older adults at your community centre, local Y, seniors' centre, or private fitness club.
Talk to your friends and find out what they are doing. Maybe you could try something with one of them.
Even if you have not been very active, once you get started your body will adjust to your energy needs.
Just try something... a little bit every day will make a difference.
After a year and a half of retirement, the focus on what is important and what is not, is becoming much clearer as time passes by. At this point in time they are, keeping healthy, both in mind and body and being wise in our investments, so we can get a return and hopefully be able a little more comfortable in our later life.
