Just 20–30 minutes of movement a day can boost your mood, reduce anxiety, and sharpen your thinking.

Movement doesn’t have to mean a full workout — it can be a walk, stretch break, or dance around the house. It’s not about performance — it’s about feeling better.

How it Helps:

Boosts Mood – Physical activity releases endorphins, your brain’s “feel-good” chemicals.

Reduces Stress – Movement lowers cortisol levels and helps you unwind.

Improves Focus – Even light activity improves memory and attention.

Promotes Better Sleep – Active days help create restful nights.

Builds Resilience – Regular movement strengthens both body and mind over time.

Remember:

Movement isn’t about perfection — it’s about progress and self-care.

Start where you are, move how you can, and feel the mental health benefits build.

Try These Simple Options:

• 10-minute walk outside
• Gentle yoga or stretching
• Dancing to your favorite song
• Desk stretches during the workday
• Bike rides or light resistance training
