15. Exercise is medicine, w/ Dr Jodi Richardson

There's a clear connection between how much you exercise and how anxious you feel. This is why this episode, the second in my 3 part Summer Series, is dedicated to supporting you to make exercise a consistent part of your anxiety management plan. You'll learn how exercise helps:

- reframe our experience of anxiety

- diverts our attention from worry

- gets us out of our heads

- powerfully changes brain chemistry

- bolsters our resilience and so much more.

Since exercise is the medicine, you'll also learn the dose, how to get started and who you can turn to for help.
