Welcome to the first Move That Lymph Challenge for 2023!
This year for each challenge we are changing it up by asking each participant to pick out a song that motivates you for each challenge. At the end of 2023, you should have 8 songs. For the RISE challenge, it can be any song that inspires you to RISE for the day, RISE for the challenge, RISE to facing lymphedema every day. Our example song this challenge is RISE by Katy Perry. For 2023, the Move That Lymph challenge themes will include self care and activities for mental health (meditation) and overall health and wellness (sleep) along with our traditional virtual races and workouts (yoga).
We begin with our RISE Challenge, a focus on yoga, sleep, and meditation which helps increased flexibility, respiration and energy, and muscle strength and tone as well as reduced stress.
Always remember that we have lymphedema but lymphedema does not have us! There is no better time to join in the fun of moving while simultaneously increasing lymphatic health awareness to all around you in your family and local community.
Challenge duration: Jan 8 – 29, 2023
Registration window: Jan 8 – 14, 2023
