Friday Flex For Your Mental Health
Exercise not only improves your physical health, but it can have amazing benefits for our mental health. According to HelpGuide.org, exercise can assist us in managing our depression, anxiety, stress, ADHD, PTSD and trauma, more effectively, in many different ways. It can even improve our resiliency, result in better sleep, foster a higher sense of self-esteem, lead to feeling more energized, and increase our focus and memory. For the full article click here.
Each week, Counseling and Wellness Services will provide a post with information about ways to move your mental health. Resources and videos are from various YouTube exercise channels and the John W. Brick Mental Health Foundation, whose purpose is to “Integrate salutogenic approaches, such as exercise, nutrition and mind-body practices, into treating mental illness and promoting mental wellness.”
Enjoy this YouTube video highlighting ways to move your mental health in less than 20 minutes.
Week 15
15 Minute Cardio – HIIT Dance Workout
With we picked 10 instrumental beats and mashed them together with 10 of our favorite exercises for a cardio-hiit banger! This workout combines cardio movements with strength training for a complete high-intensity workout. This workout is not easy by any means, so Juice included a few modifications to help you manage through the workout. If you fall off beat, or run out of gas, no worries–just vibe to the music and pick back up when you can.
