Active living can improve your physical health, mental health, and overall well-being. It can also reduce your risk of chronic diseases.

Activities such as walking, biking, golfing, swimming, and gardening can all count as active living. The key is to engage in regular physical activity that gets your heart rate up and makes you feel good.
