Exercise isn’t always fun. Where’s the open space to move around? Who has the peace to hear themselves think? How does a person find the place or time to get the exercise they need today? The gym is a dreaded place for many people, because it cannot always be motivational. Walking a mile through the woods or plains is a different experience from walking on a treadmill for a mile. But not everyone is lucky enough to live by nature. Big cities don’t always allow people the quiet they need to focus or the space they need to exercise, so the only other option is the gym. Those kinds of options don’t get everyone excited to exercise. But the truth is, our bodies need that nitty gritty use once in a while to build basic muscle and support heart health. This is why dude ranches are such a good option for people looking for a new way to be healthy.  Of course the point of a dude ranch is to enjoy yourself, but not everyone knows why they are having so much fun, more than they ever expected. A person gets to experience freedom of walking where they please, having hearty meals, and getting to use their hands. A person may even find his or herself learning how to ride horseback. A body can respond better to having a purpose.  Human beings were hunters and gatherers for so long, the short switch into modern society these last few centuries hasn’t translated into our DNA yet. In other words, our bodies still want to move, and jump and be useful. And while you think that riding a horse or making a chair with your hands is only stimulating your mind, your body feels useful when in action. The symmetry between body and mind is restored when both get to be used. This kind of stimulation is what makes a person happy as well as health.

The problem is, not many people think of going to a ranch when they start feeling the weight of the world upon their shoulders.   But they are located all over the U.S., and are very accommodating to families and single persons alike.   Montana dude ranches, for example, are some of the best around.   A ranch is a place that can excite people of all ages, and make a person want to live a healthier life.
