3 min practiceCan be done any time of dayReflectThe Bible encourages doing healthy physical activities, saying in 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 that you should treat your body like a temple and "honor God with your bodies".
To do this activity, while sitting or squatting on the ground, extend one leg and reach toward your toes. Hold for 10 to 30 seconds, then switch legs and repeat.
Even a simple physical activity like this one can be a spiritual act of faith if it is done with intention.
