What impact can recovery and positive psychology play on your physiology? 🧠
Athletes who take recovery seriously are more likely to be able to bounce back from hard sessions without compromising their performance.
Activating the parasympathetic nervous system enhances recovery from sports by lowering heart rate, promoting muscle repair, improving digestion and nutrient absorption, and restoring overall physiological balance.
Positive Psychology also supports recovery by enhancing mood, reducing stress hormones, improving motivation and resilience - it’s just as important to relax your mind as it is your body.
