This Mental Health Day, we’re setting out to ensure that you understand just how important fitness is for your mental health, especially as we enter the darker months.

Here are Vivify’s top tips for staying on top of your well-being this winter:

🧘🏼Move in short bursts: Even 10–15 minutes of activity, like a quick yoga session, walk, or mini workout, can boost mood, reduce stress, and improve mental clarity.

👥Get your community involved: Group activities encourage social connection, reduce feelings of isolation, and make exercise more enjoyable (hosting activities in nearby school spaces is an easy and convenient way to reach your local community).

🌳Mix up the environment: Try combining indoor and outdoor sessions when possible. Natural light and fresh air can increase energy levels and improve wellbeing.

📆Keep it consistent: Regular, scheduled activities create routine, build community engagement, and help participants see long-term benefits for both body and mind.

Don’t be too hard on yourself: All that matters is that you’re moving! 💚
