The Joy of Movement: How Exercise Helps Us Find Happiness, Hope, Connection, and Courage

I'm not sure what I thought this book would be but it was on much more than exercise and movement. There's a lot in here about habits that modern humans have lost but which still help our bodies thrive (contact with dirt, witnessing greenery and nature, welcoming help from others, etc).

There's definitely a lot of anecdote in this book but there is discussion of the science behind many of the stories as well.

This book inspired me get back into regular movement habits, which is what I was hoping for.
