Two to five guided sessions per week, integrated with your treatment plan. Strengthen your body, calm your mind and build confidence
The connection between exercise and mental health is known since the first studies in the 1970s. Physical activity helps lower stress, improve energy and supports emotional balance.
Numerous studies have confirmed these mental health benefits. Both cardio and strength training have proven effective in alleviating depressive symptoms, while regular physical activity improves cognitive functions and reduces stress levels. At Welbewust Life, we don't just know this works,we've built our entire approach around it.
Movement is a powerful tool for long-term brain health. It’s not a replacement for therapy, but it can accelerate progress by boosting neuroplasticity: the brain’s ability to adapt, grow and strengthen new connections.
Consistent physical activity enhances mental strength by boosting three key molecules involved in brain adaptability, emotional regulation, and cognitive performance
Increases by 200-300% after exercise, promoting new brain cell growth and protecting existing neurons.
Real impact: Better memory, faster learning, improved mood regulation.
Enhanced by 20-40% through regular exercise, supporting brain recovery and cognitive function.
Real impact: Faster recovery from mental fatigue, improved focus during study/work.
Promotes the growth of new blood vessels in the brain, improving neural connectivity and brain health through enhanced vascular networks.
Real impact: Better brain resilience, improved cognitive function, enhanced recovery from mental fatigue.
Often called the "happiness hormone," endorphins induce a feeling of euphoria, helping you feel better during and after exercise. They also alleviate stress and anxiety.
Real impact: Natural pain relief and mood elevation that lasts hours post-workout.
Provides a sense of satisfaction and reward after exertion, helping you stay motivated as your brain associates the positive experience with the activity.
Real impact: Builds motivation loops that make you want to exercise again.
Improves mood and reduces feelings of depression. It also plays a role in regulating sleep, promoting rest and recovery.
Real impact: Better mood regulation and improved sleep quality.
Known as the stress hormone, cortisol helps the body cope with physical stress from intense exercise by regulating energy and recovery.
Real impact: Better stress management and improved recovery between sessions.
Often called the "fight-or-flight hormone," adrenaline increases heart rate, breathing, and blood flow, boosting performance and alertness.
Real impact: Enhanced focus and energy that extends beyond your workout.
Lifting weights doesn't just build muscle. It builds mental resilience. The progressive overload principle (gradually increasing weight) teaches your brain that you can handle increasing challenges.
Cardio exercise is like meditation in motion. The rhythmic, repetitive nature helps quiet the anxious chatter in your mind while flooding your brain with mood-boosting chemicals.
Sports requiring quick decision-making, coordination, and strategy provide extra cognitive benefits by strengthening neural networks through multi-input processing.
The hydrostatic pressure of water has a calming effect on the nervous system, while the resistance provides a full-body workout that's easy on joints.
Since exercise is an essential part of your treatment, good guidance is crucial. We have partnered with NUL30 Gym to ensure that you receive the highest quality training experience, specifically designed for mental health enhancement.
How This Enhances Your Treatment
Exercise is an essential part of your treatment, evaluated alongside your mental health goals. To ensure top-quality guidance, we’ve partnered with NUL30 Gym to provide one to two guided sessions per week, specifically designed to enhance mental well-being. Your progress is tracked regularly and your plan is adjusted as needed, keeping physical activity aligned with your therapeutic progress—always under the care of professionals committed to the highest standards.
Sports & Therapy Participant
"I was skeptical at first, but the combination of therapy and exercise worked great. With help I found my motivation and now feel fitter and confident."
Client with initial shyness and perseverance"Sports were always a challenge, but with the help of my psychologist and trainer I quickly saw the benefits. It gave me structure and focus, and I feel less stressed. Highly recommended!"
Client looking for structure and motivation"As a fanatic athlete I chose sports therapy, and I am glad I did. The combination of group sports, guidance and evaluation with the psychologist made me aware of the positive effect. It really helped my recovery."
Client looking for combined expertise"Working with the gym gave me a safe place to recover. The combination of exercise, the workbook and conversations with my psychologist helped me make rapid progress — the treatment was even finished earlier than expected."
Client looking for combined expertiseBased on your assessment, we create a program that maximizes those brain-boosting chemicals (BDNF, IGF-1, VEGF) while building physical strength and confidence.
We don't just check your fitness level,we assess how exercise affects your mood, energy, and stress levels. Your trainer learns about your therapy goals and mental health challenges.
By setting personal goals through coaching, staying active, and learning to move with intention, you build habits that help you feel clearer, more focused, and more in control,even between therapy sessions.
Your trainer regularly communicates with your therapist about your progress, challenges, and breakthroughs. This creates a feedback loop that optimizes both your physical and mental health progress.
Monitoring your progress is key to staying motivated and seeing how exercise impacts your mental health. Here are some excellent apps to help you track different types of activities:
