One of the main reasons I do exercise, sometimes the only reason, is to help calm my mind

Because I have ADHD meditation is difficult, it's not impossible, I am finding better ways to meditate from people with ADHD but it's not top of my list of coping strategies

Instead exercise is, because it's moving my body whilst also having to pay attention to what I am doing (especially if I am doing self guided routines) it's a lot easier to quiet my mind, I'm not being asked to silence my mind and focus on nothing, I am expected to focus on what I'm doing and because the task is challenging, it's relatively easy to let everything else drift away and just move my body, even when my mind does move away, I just gently pull it back, not because I have to but because I want to complete the task and zoning in on what the people around me are doing whilst interesting is less interesting than finishing this set or holding this pose

It's actually why I tend to focus on dynamic exercises, static holds whilst challenging are more challenging for my mind to concentrate on them they are to do, so I focus on the flow, which acts as a form of meditation and thereby quiets my mind

But also, the endorphins, the physical fatigue and everything like that are known to help regulate ADHD, the physical fatigue allows me to get to sleep at night, the physical effects of exercise help me to concentrate

Exercise is not important to me for the nebulous concept of getting healthy, exercise is enjoyable for the very tangible effect on my focus and the better sleep I will get after doing it

Terrible news, gang: I exercised, ate well and got enough sleep, and my mental health has improved. Having now proven to myself that I am not a hopeless wreck who will be irrevocably depressed and miserable for the rest of my life, I am forced to actually... ugh... work on myself.

So it’s implied in episode 2x1 that the mental health of the victim affects the quality of the blood and affects the general wellbeing of the vampire who drinks it. (“Too much sadness in the blood” etc)

Have we considered the implications of this, combined with Armand’s main source of blood being suicidal people?

Do you know more about the Benefits of Physical Activity?

HOW WALKING FOR JUST 30 MINUTES EVERY DAY CAN IMPROVE YOUR PHYSICAL & MENTAL WELLBEING

Regular physical activity has numerous benefits for our physical and mental wellbeing. Just 30 minutes of moderate exercise – such as walking – can help increase our lifespan, reduce our risk of developing chronic diseases, and improve our mood and mental wellbeing.

There are many ways to incorporate walking into our daily routine. For example, we can take a brisk walk during our lunch break, walk the dog in the evening, or go for a walk instead of driving to the store.

When we walk, we should aim to make the most of our time by being mindful of our surroundings and paying attention to our breath. Walking with purpose and intention can help us to clear our mind and improve our focus.

Walking is also a great way to boost our mental wellbeing. Studies have shown that walking can help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. Walking outdoors in nature can have even greater benefits for our mental health.

So next time you need a break, go for a walk and reap the many benefits that it has to offer!

The Many Benefits of Walking:

Walking is an easy and accessible form of exercise that can benefit us both physically and mentally. Walking regularly can improve our physical and mental wellbeing by increasing our lifespan, reducing our risk of chronic diseases, and relieving stress. Studies have found that walking is associated with a reduced risk of developing type-2 diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic illnesses. In particular, walking at a brisk pace for at least 150 minutes per week can lower our risk of death from all causes. Regular walking can also improve our mental wellbeing. Studies have found that walking for just 30 minutes a day can reduce stress and anxiety and improve our mood. In fact, walking outdoors in nature has even greater benefits for our mental health. These mental health benefits can also extend to our cognitive performance.

Studies have found that 30 minutes of walking can boost creativity and improve our memory recall.

Incorporating Walking into Your Daily Routine:

If we want to gain all of the health benefits associated with walking, it is important to incorporate it into our daily routine. One of the easiest ways to do this is to take a 10-15 minute walk during our lunch break.

This can help us to refocus, reframe our thoughts, and improve our concentration during work. We can also add additional walking into our daily routine. For example, instead of driving to the store, walk there instead. Or take the stairs instead of the lift. If we have a pet, take them out for an extra 10-15 minute walk.

Making the Most of Your Walk: To make the most out of our walk, we should aim to be intentional and mindful. This means paying attention to our breath and appreciating our surroundings. When we walk, try to bring our attention to our breath and focus on each step. This can help to clear our mind and improve our focus.

In particular, walking outdoors in nature can help reduce stress, improve our mood, and boost creativity. So make sure to take advantage of nature around you when you walk!

Walking for Mental Wellbeing: Studies have found that walking can be beneficial for our mental wellbeing. This is especially true if we walk in nature. Studies have found that walking in nature can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. 

In fact, this type of walking has been found to be just as effective as other forms of psychological therapy. Walking can help us to feel calm, clear our minds, and improve our focus. It is also beneficial for our creativity and memory recall. 

Walking is an accessible and easy form of exercise that can have numerous health benefits. Walking for just 30 minutes each day can boost our mental and physical wellbeing by reducing our risk of developing chronic diseases, relieving stress, and improving our cognitive performance. When we walk, we should strive to be intentional and mindful. Aim to be aware of our breath and take in the beauty of nature around us. So next time you need a break, go for a walk!
