FITNESS FOR MENTAL HEALTH
20/06/2024 Noticias
The World Health Organization “WHO” recognizes the benefits of physical activity in general and fitness as an important activity not only to combat discouragement and depression, but it is essential for the mental work of remembering the movements in a aerobic or dance class for various mental illnesses so that they do not continue to progress.
The role of the instructor over the last 30 years has always been questioned. Usually, the fitness sector asks itself: How should it behave in a mixed class where there are more advanced or easier students along with others who have a harder time keeping up? Likewise, the answer in most cases is that the advanced students should be in front so as not to expose those who find it more difficult and who may copy it, in addition to the possibility of being assisted by the person in charge of the class. .
The mental benefits of mentally aerobic classes are:
INCREASE IN SELF-ESTEEM: Achieving physical goals, added to achieving choreographies or exercises, allows us to gain confidence.
STRESS REDUCTION: When we exercise, our body releases endorphins, also known as the “happiness hormones.” These natural chemicals have the ability to reduce the sensation of pain and generate a feeling of well-being.
Improved mood: Scientific studies ensure that regular physical activity is as effective as antidepressant medications in relieving both depression and anxiety.
Memory exercise: Keeping memory constantly working to retain a movement, choreography or dance in general, added to the action of the movement, allows us to activate body and mind to such a point that it allows us to delay or stagnate a process of cognitive deterioration.
