Move Your Mood: Rich Falls on Exercise and Mental Well-being

Exercise takes on a lot of different faces, I'd say, and for me sometimes that's really hard to push through, because in my mind I had this rigidity idea, this mental model about what exercise and fitness is supposed to look like, even though I know that I can just go outside, you know, and swing my arms around a little bit, and that's going to make me feel better.
Feeling like exercise is a chore? In this episode of 'Monday State of Mind,' host Michael Arnold sits down with Rich Falls to chat about the transformative power of movement. Rich shares his personal journey of weaving exercise into his daily life and how it has dramatically improved his mental state. They dive into the idea that exercise doesn't have to be a rigid, one-size-fits-all routine.
Instead, it's about discovering what kind of movement brings you joy and fits seamlessly into your lifestyle. Whether it's a brisk walk, a dance session in your living room, or some gentle stretching, the key is to keep moving. Rich also highlights the importance of community and accountability, mentioning how being part of a supportive group like the Phoenix Community can make all the difference.
The conversation is packed with practical tips and heartfelt anecdotes, making it clear that exercise is not just about physical health but also about nurturing your mind and spirit. Tune in to learn how even small steps can lead to big changes in your mental well-being.
