It's well known that physical activity can improve your mental health. But how much exercise do you really need? What exercise is best for your psychological well-being? Can going for a walk really combat depression? Those are just some of the questions we'll cover with neurophysiologist Louisa Nicola. Louisa founded Neuro Athletics, a consulting firm that provides scientific strategies to help athletes and investors achieve peak performance. She's also the host of The Neuro Experience podcast where she talks about everything from brain health and neuroscience to longevity and peak performance. Some of the things she shares today are how much exercise you need for optimal mental health, the types of exercise that improve your psychological well-being, and the physical activities that will help you feel your best emotionally.
