FOR YOU
Remember, your body is the only place
you have to live. Treat it with respect. Feel
the power in your muscles, the rhythm in
your heartbeat, and the clarity in your
mind. Exercise is a celebration of what
your body can do, not a punishment for
what you ate.

strengthen social attachments,

depression and insomnia.
2. CYCLING
Cycling has multiple mental health
benefits, including reducing stress,
anxiety, and depression. It is also
beneficial for our muscles.
3. RUNNING
Running bouts of variable lengths
and intensities, and running
interventions can improve mood and
mental health.
4. SWIMMING
The release of endorphins,
serotonin, and dopamine during
swimming also helps you feel more
at ease.
5. DANCE
Dancing can improve your mood
while you learn, move, and perform
and it also raises your heart rate and
works your muscles.
6. HIKING
If the adrenaline isn't released, it
accumulates, causing muscle tension
and anxiety. Hiking is an accessible
way of releasing that adrenaline.
