Physical activity boosts mental wellness
Regular physical activity can relieve tension, anxiety, depression and anger. You may not only notice a “feel good sensation” immediately following your physical activity, but most people also note an improvement in general well-being over time during the weeks and months as physical activity becomes a part of your routine. Specifically, physical activity can improve mental health as it:
Releases tension
Promotes enthusiasm and optimism
Counters anxiety and depression
Improves self-image
Exercise increases the flow of oxygen which directly affects the brain. Your mental acuity and memory can also be improved with physical activity.
