In a society obsessed with how our bodies look, sometimes it is easy to forget that our bodies are incredible. They enable us to do many fun and important things. As we teach our kids to be grateful for their bodies and to love themselves, we shift the focus from body image to body appreciation.

- Support 75% of our when we walk (according to Acorn Health)
- Help us run faster
