Mental Health TIP:

As part of Mental Health week, her is another tip:

Physical activity maintains a healthy body and also improves your mental health. Research has shown that exercise is one of the most effective tools to manage mental health issues like anxiety and depression. Physical activity is a natural stress reliever and, when you exercise, your body releases feel-good chemicals called endorphins. Also, levels of cortisol, a hormone released during stress, can be reduced through regular exercise and feelings of anxiety can be reduced. Some benefits of exercise:

  • Reduce stress and anxiety
  • Improve mood
  • Boost self-esteem
  • Reduce symptoms of depression
  • Improve cognitive function
