"Grief and our emotions affect how our bodies feel. Did you know that it can work the other way around? Engaging in activities like yoga, running, walking, or martial arts increases the neurotransmitter serotonin, which can help improve your mood and energy.

"Use the Five-Second Rule. If you find that you are about to do something negative or are about to be overwhelmed by grief, start moving your body for five seconds. Swing your arms! Stomp your feet! Wiggle like a worm! Hop like a bunny! You will be surprised by how five seconds of movement can help."
