The foundation of movement
Our body is built to move, and movement shapes how we feel throughout the day — from our energy and mood to our focus and overall wellbeing. It does not need to be intense or time-consuming to make a difference. Small moments of activity, built naturally into everyday life, can help you feel more energised, more balanced, and more aware of your body. Finding ways to move that feel manageable and enjoyable makes it easier to keep going, creating healthier habits for you and your family.
Real stories, real change
Your colleagues are already exploring how small movement habit changes can make a difference. In the film Move – “One step at a time”, Ines from VELUX Commercial Deutschland shows how simple, everyday choices can lead to positive change.

How to start today
Small steps, big impact
Science shows that even light daily movement can improve mood, support metabolism, and benefit cardiovascular health. Short walking routines can also reduce stress and improve brain function. Over time, regular physical activity helps prevent major chronic diseases and lowers the risk of early death.*
Try simple changes to your daily movement habits for a lasting impact on your energy, health, and wellbeing.
Add a 20-minute walk to your day. Try to walk without your phone, music, or podcasts, and use the time to clear your mind.
Add a micro-movement habit to your day — for example, 10 squats while brushing your teeth or making coffee.
Take the stairs instead of the lift when possible.
Walk during phone calls.
Choose an activity you enjoy and make it part of your weekly routine — for example, dancing, sports, or another type of movement that feels good to you.
