Handout: Mindful Moon Flow<\/a>
The digital world we live in makes it easy to spend LOTS of time in front of a screen, right? Many of us spend countless hours each week sitting behind a computer screen, watching our phones, and playing video games. Yet the statistics are clear\u2014 kids and teens who exercise regularly are more likely to develop healthier lifelong habits than those who don\u2019t. So, taking time for your (or your child\u2019s) health now will continue to benefit you (or them) in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
