Yesterday I advised somebody that physical activity is highly beneficial for mental health and can help more than medications would alone. The community did not like that. I am here again to remind you that physical activity is Paramount to mental well-being. Go out and garden. Take a walk in the park. Go for a jog, whatever it may be that gets you out of your current location and allows you to reflect and think.
I need to hear this for sure. I got 3 hours of sleep last night and had to go into the office when I’d usually work from home today. I’ll be exhausted when I get home and not want to do anything. There’s still snow blocking the trail and many sidewalks. Even the dog is staying at my ex’s so she’s not pushing me for a walk
Exercise is important but I think sleep is even more important. If I stay up late I force myself to do body weight fitness till I’m tired. It has mixed results. Apparently I need to do more crunches and less squats.
