Join us for Mental Health Benefits of Exercise (Webinar) on Thursday, May 13 at 1 PM.

You likely already know about the physical benefits of exercise, but did you know that exercise can impact your mental health, as well? Join American Council of Exercise Health Coach Danielle Mize to learn how exercise can assist in both decreasing negative moods and in improving self-esteem, cognition and sleep. Even better, most of these benefits can be attained with low to moderate- intensity exercise for just a few minutes a day. Join Mize as she discusses all the benefits available for a happy, healthy mind.

By participating in this program, you can expect to learn:

  • the impact exercise has on mental health;
  • how much exercise is needed for mental health benefits;
  • how to overcome common barriers related to exercise.

This program is presented by Danielle Mize and is hosted by the Winter Park Health Foundation.
