You probably know that exercise is the key to reducing depression, but you might not know why. Here are some tips for exercising when you're depressed.
Change your view of “exercise”.
Forget “exercise”. Instead, think “being active” or “having fun”. Besides, it gives you a bigger benefit.
Taking part in physical activities with others supports you in doing those activities. Ask friends what activities they're doing or they would like to start doing, and join them. Other choices include hiring a personal trainer, joining an exercise group or going to a class.
Try an experiment.
Or go to the gym every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Even if you're feeling too tired to do any actual exercise, still go to the gym, park your car, walk in, chage into workout clothes, and pick up a 5-pound weight. If you're really so tired that you don't want to do anything else, that's totally fine.
Take it outside.
Nature has a great effect on our feeling and decreases depressive symptoms. Even just looking at images of lakes and trees helps. Or walk on a treadmill (跑步机) by a window.
Tie it to a goal.
Korb said, “When you connect your exercise to a long-term goal, it helps your brain forget momentary discomfort and makes your exercise more satisfying.” For example, Korb started getting active because it made playing sports more enjoyable. Figure out what's truly important to you.
A. Move with someone else.
B. Sign up and go to exercise classes.
C. It's a lot easier to do something simple.
D. Remind yourself of your goal regularly.
E. Remember your partner to keep you company.
F. Take a walk around your neighbourhood or a local park.
G. This increases your chances of actually moving your body.
