Title:

How Physical Activity Helps Maintain Mental Health


Level:

Grades 6-12


Summary:

Millions of young people face mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, and even everyday stress. Regular physical activity can promote the release of natural “feel good” chemicals in the brain, boost energy levels, improve self-esteem, increase a feeling of connection to others, and help ease the stress almost everyone experiences from time to time. This book shows how physical activity helps reduce mental health risks and maintain overall well-being.

“A sensible, clear, evidence-backed overview of how and why to exercise.”
–Kirkus Reviews, July 1, 2023
