Exercise is great for #mentalhealth but for some of us, it’s just not that easy. The theme for #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek is #MindfulMovements
These 5 moves can be done by anyone, anytime:
1. Look at the sky
2. Tapping
3. Butterfly hug
4. Breathe
5. Tension release

The mental health and wellbeing benefits of moving more include:

less tension, stress, and mental fatigue

a natural energy boost

a sense of achievement

more focus and motivation

feeling less angry or frustrated

having fun
