Exercise is often a daily part of the day. Sometimes it’s lifting weights or running a few miles, while others prefer a nice stroll to get the heart rate up. Most look at exercise as a physical improvement but don’t realize just how much it is also doing for your mental health.
As we approach another World Mental Health Day, mental wellness is very important. And when you consider exercising, there’s no bigger muscle that needs tending to than the brain.
Studies indicate that exercise can reduce things like anxiety or stress — something that is much needed in today’s world. Naked Nutrition put together an infographic of the mental health benefits of exercise that outlines it all.
