Exercise and Wellbeing – A healthy mind and body

Exercise and physical activity are essential for our health. While most of us know that physical activity is important for the health of our muscles and bones, exercise provides many benefits for our mental health too.

Exercise can stimulate the release of chemicals in our brains that can have a positive effect on mood, stress and anxiety. It can also help to improve our sleep, which can be affected by a range of mental health conditions, including anxiety and posttraumatic stress disorder.

This Open Arms - Veterans & Families Counselling webinar explores the ways that physical activity and exercise (or lack of it) affect our mental wellbeing and provides tips and ideas for how to start getting some of these benefits into your everyday life.
