There are huge benefits of actively moving your body for emotional and mental health. Physical activity can help greatly with maintaining positive mental wellbeing. The endorphins that the brain releases during exercise help to improve mood, energy levels and even sleep. Together, these positive effects help to improve self-confidence and resilience. Even a small boost of exercise makes a difference. |

We talk a lot about physical fitness but what about mental fitness! Learning how to support a healthy mind is the driver of your life. When you have a strong healthy mind you have more ability to ride the ups and downs of life. You think better, react better and can set goals and make plans for a happier and fulfilling life. |

There is strong evidence that shows that feeling close to, and valued by, other people is a fundamental human need and one that helps us function well in the world. We all need family and friendships where we know we are valued and cared for and can reach out and share when times are good and tough. Social relationships are critical for promoting wellbeing and for acting as a buffer against mental ill health for people of all ages. How do we build a culture of caring and connection? |
