'There is no health without mental health' -
Did you know that April has been National Stress Awareness Month?
It will come as no surprise that exercise can help relieve stress, boost your feel-good hormones and act as a distraction from the worries of daily life.
✅ Endorphins - in the simplest of terms, exercise helps to boost the production of these feel-good neurotransmitters.
✅ Redirecting your focus - your worries may have been on your mind all day but indulging in a workout of any kind can act as 'meditation in motion', as you focus on what your body is doing and leave the stresses of your day behind.
✅A place for your stress to go - replicating the effects of stress (such as the fight or flight response) exercise can provide relief for your body, supporting your systems as it works through those effects. This can benefit your immune, cardiovascular, and digestive systems and help insulate your body from the damaging effects of stress.
✅ Improved sleep - not only does exercise improve your mood, but it can also increase self-confidence, help you relax and improve your sleep.
Stress = disrupted sleep
Adequate Sleep = reduced anxiety, & an improved ability to process stress logically and respond in a more positive manner.
