Embracing Play with Darryl Edwards

Bestselling Author Darryl Edwards discusses the value of movement, why traditional exercise is not enough, and the value of play in life.

 

"Just because you're in nature doesn't make it playful. Just because you're moving and being active doesn't make it playful.

It's the attitude which makes something playful."
