@camila02128394 Time management is a big part of managing stress. Setting time aside for ourselves is an effective way to prevent burnout from school and work. Taking breaks to exercise, socialize, or read a book can help us return to school/work with a clear mind and more motivation #HKR1000
I tend to find myself in bad moods during times of stress such as studying for an exam or having an important job interview. To cope, I exercise regularly and spend time socializing with others. My good moods on WellTrack during these activities show their effectiveness #HKR1000
@RaaschGabriela Covid-19 limited our ability to obtain the recommended 150 mins/week of moderate to vigorous activity. This combined with an increased reliance on fast food and delivery has increased anxiety and risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and premature death #HKR1000
Lifting weights contributes to physical wellness by increasing muscular strength and endurance as well as coordination. These are crucial traits that can translate to daily activities. This article cites weight management as another benefit of weight training. #HKR1000
@cmileshkr082mun I agree Craig! Exercise helps to reduce anxiety and raise our confidence. I always like to grab a few friends and play a game of street hockey or go for a run. I find it improves my physical, emotional, and interpersonal wellness! It's a 3-for-1! #HKR1000
Flexibility was the worst component of #PhysicalWellness in #HKR1000. We should aim to perform a stretching routine 4-7 days/week to improve flexibility. Yoga is a great way to achieve this as it can also increase muscle endurance and lower stress! #SpiritualWellness
