Exercise can be up to 1.5 times more effective than traditional treatments for anxiety and depression. Paul McKenna, a lecturer, teacher, designer, and author, will outline key features from his guide, 'Empowering Mental Health: Effective Natural Approaches.' He will cover practical strategies such as exercise, yoga, mindfulness, and a healthy diet, while also emphasising the importance of social connections and community involvement in enhancing mental well-being.
