Show Notes

 This episode, I focus on the benefits of exercise in terms of your BRAIN HEALTH, and highlight some recent studies that tell us how much it benefits us. Exercise impacts our memory, learning, creativity, and function through increasing the brain's neuroplasticity. There is also evidence that new brain cells can be born and that our brain size increases! Benefits of exercise extend to impact anxiety, depression, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. 
In short: our brains LOVE exercise. Give this episode a listen if you want inspiration to get out there in the cold and move.
