What are your weekend plans? 🏉🎾🤿🏏🛼🛝🤸‍♂️🏌️🧘‍♀️🏄‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏄‍♂️🚴‍♀️🤹‍♂️Try and incorporate some activity and include friends or family. Exercising with friends is beneficial because it enhances motivation, provides accountability, makes the activity more fun, and can lead to better physical performance due to increased safety and reduced feelings of fatigue. Working out with others also fosters closer social relationships and offers mental health benefits, such as reduced stress and loneliness, by providing a supportive community and a sense of belonging.

Walking in nature is not only good for your physical health but also your mental health. Engaging with nature's sights, sounds, and smells activates the vagus nerve. The gentle and calming sensory stimulation can elicit positive emotions and feelings of awe, which further contribute to vagal stimulation and a sense of relaxation.
