20 Minutes a Day . . . For 12 Hours of Happiness
June 9, 2009
Researchers at the University of Vermont found that people who exercise experienced significant improvements in mood-not just immediately after exercising, but for up to 12 hours later-as compared to people who did not exercise. These findings were recently presented at the annual meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine. According to Jeremy Sibold, assistant professor in the Department of Rehabilitation and Movement Science, “It’s clear that exercise is critical for both physical health and mental health.”
Studies show exercise can improve your mood
Up to twelve hours later, researchers conclude
Even if your life is a mess
Activity reduces stress
Still it comes in second to good ol’ comfort food
