Studies have shown that taking breaks in the day for #physical #activity can improve the focus of students. Next time you find yourself hitting a mid-morning slump in the office, a lunch time #run is just the key you need to get some fresh air, refresh your #brain & come back feeling ready to focus!

Combining the physical movement of #mindful #running & the beautiful surroundings of nature, you allow your mind to become clear. It’s easier to forget about the worries of the world when pushing your body through a challenging run amongst a stunning landscape. 📷 M.Regnet

By paying close attention to the body’s signals, individuals can learn to identify & correct dysfunctional #movement patterns or tensions that may be contributing to pain or reduced function. This mindful engagement helps bridge the gap between mental intention & physical action. #somaticexercises

Mindful #running as a form of somatic exercises provides a unique opportunity to develop awareness & coping strategies for stress & anxiety. The repetitive and rhythmic nature of running fosters a meditative state, which can effectively clear one’s head & make space for deep reflection. 📷 M.Regnet

Oxford Languages defines #neuroplasticity as “the ability of the #brain to form and reorganize synaptic connections, especially in response to learning or experience or following injury”. In other words, our #brains are resilient and ever-changing! #somatonin #somaticexercises #mindfulmovement
