Research suggests that physical movement, exercise, and accessing therapy are all great for your mental health. Walk and talk therapy is a great way to combine all of these aspects to improve your overall health and wellbeing. It can also be helpful for those who are uncomfortable with the intimacy of therapy in a counselling room. 

​

Engaging in physical activity, especially in natural settings, can significantly enhance mental and physical well-being. These can include:

​

Endorphin Release: Physical activity stimulates the release of endorphins, which can alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression, promoting a more positive mood.

 

Connection with Nature: Spending time outdoors helps us reconnect with our environment, providing a calming effect that can soothe the nervous system and enhance mindfulness.

 

Improved Mood: Regular physical activity is linked to improved mood and reduced feelings of stress and anxiety.

 

Genetic Benefits: Walking and other forms of exercise can counteract the influence of weight-promoting genes, helping to maintain a healthy weight.

 

Health Protection: Physical activity is associated with a lower risk of various health issues, including breast cancer. Regular movement can alleviate joint pain and stiffness, making it easier to stay active.

 

Immune Function: Exercise boosts the immune system, helping the body fight off illnesses more effectively.

 

Incorporating regular walks or outdoor activities into your routine can yield tremendous benefits for both your body and mind!​​
