Bridging Mental Health & Fitness | ETP#182
Episode description
In ETP 182, we explore the deep connection between mental health and fitness, sharing our own experiences with movement and how it’s shaped our well-being. We talk about why exercise is more than just self-care—it’s essential for a strong mind. We break down the science behind movement, and its role in the dopamine reward system, and how some research has shown that exercise can be just as effective as antidepressants.
