Running is also my therapy

#gettoknowme #running #dogmomlife #fitnesslifestyle #newtolemon8

2024/12/25 Edited to

Running is not just a physical activity; it has profound effects on mental health and well-being. Many people find that running helps alleviate stress, anxiety, and depression. The rhythmic motion promotes the release of endorphins, often referred to as 'feel-good' hormones, which enhance mood and overall happiness. Additionally, the practice of running fosters a sense of community and connectedness. Whether you run solo or with friends, it creates opportunities to bond and share experiences. For dog lovers, incorporating pets into your running routine can enhance the joy of exercising while also providing companionship. Furthermore, setting running goals can help improve self-discipline and provide a sense of accomplishment. Each run is not only a step towards physical fitness but also a step towards personal growth. So, if you’re looking for a transformative activity, consider making running your therapy!

therapy isn’t what i thought- here’s my experience

Going to therapy was one of the hardest — but also the bravest — decisions I’ve ever made. For years, I carried so much on my own: past trauma, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, PTSD. I thought “being strong” meant never needing anyone, but in reality, I was just drowning silently. Therapy gav
