October is Exercise is Medicine Month. Movement plays a vital role in overall well-being. Physical activity helps burn off excess energy and reconnect you with your body.

Short on time? No problem! Even brief activity sessions, or micro-workouts throughout the day, can lower blood pressure, protect heart health, and reduce stress. Here are ideas for increasing your daily movement.

Remember: Developing new habits is hard! It takes time and trial and error. Be kind to yourself as you try to add movement to your life.

Need support? Reach out to your Health Worker!

Health Workers are peer health educators on the UC Berkeley campus. They’re trained by UHS Health Promotion staff on a range of college health topics and are here to share information about healthy practices, including self-care, risk management, and accessing healthcare services.

Health Workers can provide basic first aid and safer-sex supplies, help you navigate UHS, and offer a nonjudgmental ear whenever you need someone to talk to.

Find your Health Worker on the UHS website: uhs.berkeley.edu/whosyourhw
