In a powerful statement, Anambra’s First Lady, Mrs. Nonye Soludo, emphasized the importance of reframing our relationship with exercise and food. She declared, “Exercise should never be punishment for eating.”
This quote resonates deeply in a society where many people view exercise as a way to atone for indulging in food. Mrs. Soludo’s message encourages us to shift our mindset and focus on the positive aspects of physical activity and healthy eating.
Exercise should be a celebration of our bodies’ capabilities, a way to boost our mood and energy, and a means to improve our overall well-being. It should never be a form of punishment or a way to compensate for enjoying food.
By adopting this mindset, we can cultivate a healthier and more balanced approach to fitness and nutrition. Let’s embrace exercise as a joyful experience and nourish our bodies with wholesome foods, free from guilt and shame.
Thank you, Mama Anambra, for sharing your inspiring words!
