​Combining mindfulness with exercise for mental health boost

For people looking to start 2024 with a new routine to feel fitter and happier, a new study from the University of Bath suggests that combining mindfulness with exercise could be your key to success.

A study, published in the academic journal Mental Health and Physical Activity, suggests that life changes which combine both physical activity and mindfulness are most effective at lifting mood and improving health and wellbeing.
Both physical activity and mindfulness practice have well established psychological benefits.
However, by reviewing existing research studies, this is one of the first to show how the positive effects can be increased when the two are combined.
Its findings suggest that mindfulness can help to unlock exercise by helping to motivate people to start in the first place, whilst overcoming minor pain, discomfort or feelings of failure when exercising gets hard.
