FAQ

This is the first conference where you will gain insights into the intersection of movement, brain health, and psychological wellness in this one-day conference. We will be bringing in speakers from Australia, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Alabama, and Colorado.

These speakers each bring a unique perspective on the intricate relationship between physical and mental health, highlighting how advancements in clinical research have significantly contributed to our understanding. For instance, one speaker may delve into exercise and the stress resistant brain, while another may discuss the rationale, evidence, and potential role for exercise in treatment PTSD.

By exploring these various facets, we gain a more holistic view of how our bodies and minds are interconnected. Research studies have shown that regular exercise can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety by releasing endorphins, the body’s natural mood elevators. This demonstrates the powerful link between physical activity and mental health outcomes.
