Its powerful preventative and healing effects help to prevent, manage, and even reverse scary diseases and pain-in-the-neck musculoskeletal issues. Movement also increases our energy and general emotional well being. That’s the good news.
The bad news is that we’ve learned some unhealthy habits over the past hundred years or so. Mostly, we’ve learned to sit. A lot. We sit and watch TV. We sit in the car. We sit at work – at the desk, at long meetings, in break rooms. Our society has literally engineered movement out of our lives. Think about it: moving sidewalks, escalators, elevators, cars, remotes—they’re everywhere!
Our bodies are not happy. We’re gaining too much weight. Our backs are painful. Our necks are sore. Our knees are stiff. We get short of breath, even experience some tingling and numbness. Wow. It’s time to get moving.
Healthier, Happier, and Smarter
At Motion Infusion, Inc., we’re on a mission to get people moving! Why? Because we believe – and research shows – that movement is key to helping all of us to Get Healthier, Get Happier and Get Smarter.
Inspired by Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, we recognize that people are motivated to make healthy changes – like getting more active – when they see that a change can help them to not only achieve “lower order” needs, like staying healthy, but can also help them in reaching “higher order” needs, like getting happier and getting smarter. That’s why we’re making the connection between wellness, contentment and innovation.
