Fitness For Endorphin’s
Endorphins: The Natural High
When a person is physically active or exercises for a certain period of time—about 20 minutes or longer—the body releases endorphins, proteins in the brain that act as the body’s natural pain reliever.
Exercising sends a signal to your pituitary gland to release endorphins, your body’s natural feel-good drug. The more endorphins you have in your bloodstream, the better you feel.
Cardiovascular or aerobic activity can also produce brain chemicals that boost your mood and give you a sense of control and well-being, which could help ease the anxiety, depression, and mood swings you may experience & helps you sleep more soundly.
Fitness seems to be the perfect natural high and a balanced approach for stress release. So why not start today by giving yourself the gift of health through exercise….. CELEBRATE YOUR LIFE !!!!!
