Are you mildly stressed? On Quarantine Lite™️? Tired of people giving you advice on social media? ME TOO!
I did some nerd-digging and found 30+ scientific studies with ONE, EASY mental health strategy that, drumroll plz...
Improved study subject's:
- happiness.
- life satisfaction.
- mood.
- ability to sleep.
- interest in exercise.
- well-being.
- AND reduced symptoms of anxiety + depression?!
Oh and it’s FREE, and anyone of any ability can do it.
Also—I do a very weird thing in a car.
Listen to find out what both (the science thing and the weird thing) are. 👋
