I want to know a verb expressing all your activities which include moving your body in your daily life. I think one ot the expressoins might be : to act, to do the activity, to move your body, and to activate. But I cannot select the most suitable word among them. I think there might be another good word for the meaning though.

I can't think of a single word - daily activities?

'Undertake' may be a suitable verb. Thus, you might say, "Each day I have many tasks to undertake. I have to get up, prepare the children's breakfast, drive them to school, go to work..." and so on. Each of these activities involving get/prepare/drive/go and lots of other possible verbs is something you have to 'undertake'.

Thank you very much Quizmonster and other helpers.

The word of verb is activity-oriented , such as moving your body, arms and legs to spend a day, but not much mission-oriented.
I am afraid " undertake" is not most suitable ,alhough it's very near the meaning.

How about "do daily activities" when we use a phrase but a word?
Or how about simply "move " ?

So I think I might use this: The weather is great for us doing daily life in autumn, or the weather is wonderful for us moving
I am looking forward to your further advivce .
PS: There is a word expressing such a meaning in Korean language.

I'm afraid, Mankak, that the words "doing daily life" - which is what you suggest - are highly unlikely ever to appear in normal English usage. "Living daily life" is OK.
If you really just want a word for bodily movement, what about 'exercise'? Thus you might say, "The weather is wonderful for us to exercise outdoors."

Thank you very much Quizmnoster
Your answer is very helpful.

I think I had better use this:

The weather is for us to live daily life,
or the weather is for us to do the activivty.
