Memorable Moments:

"From enhancing focus and reducing impulsivity to improving mood and self-esteem, the impact of regular physical activity is profound.\u201d

\u201cNot only can regular physical activity help in managing symptoms like impulsivity and attention difficulties, but it can also play a role in improving cognitive functions and even brain structure.\u201d

"Just like everything in life, the way you approach physical exercise is all about attitude...be sure to frame physical pursuits as something fun and never a chore."

"To encourage exercise as a family, plan unstructured activity into your family time."

"If you make it a priority, your kids are more likely to do the same. Make it a habit to incorporate physical activity into your day, every day.\u201d
