Findings from research indicate that exercise is associated with improvements in mental health…
Exercise improves mood and mental health outcomes more among people who regularly exercise than those who don’t [1]. Make a regular walk part of your daily routine. Take a short, brisk walk in the morning and a stroll after dinner.
You don’t have to walk fast or far, but regular exercise, in particular walking, can dramatically reduce anxiety. It’s also a great way to get outdoors. Being outside is another excellent way to improve mental health.
Activity: Take a 15 min walk everyday and observe your surrounding.
Snap and upload 5 photos of objects of different colours that you see in your walk to unlock to next level.
