How Cycling Can Help To Cure Depression
As the famous saying goes, you never forget how to ride a bike. So many people take part in cycling as its not that hard once you have learned and you can go at whatever pace you like. Incredibly, there is also strong evidence to suggest that cycling is a very effective way of reducing the symptoms of depression and get you back on your feet again. But why is it considered to be such a healing sport?
Outdoors. To start with, cycling is more often than not an outdoor activity. Research has proved that people recover much better when they are in open spaces and are meeting other people in the outside world. Additionally the natural surroundings and fresh air are invigorating and can easily lift your mood. Bikes are also a great deal easier to transport than other outdoor equipment such as surfboards or used kayaks.
A better body. Depression can be linked to many things, but it is often a difficult hole to get out of. People tend to either comfort eat or neglect their appearance when suffering from depression and this usually makes things worse. Cycling is a great aerobic sport that works to burn off fat and get you looking slimmer. Often people who start to feel better about their appearance, also start to feel better inside as well as their confidence grows.
Endophines. Cycling is one of those exercises that when performed, causes the brain to release endorphins into the blood stream, which are hormone that makes you feel happy. These little endorphins work to increase the amount of energy the body has, reduce feelings of anxiety and worry, and generally make you feel good. It is no wonder then that exercise is considered one of the most effective ways of beating depression. So if you’re feeling a bit low, find a pair of second hand bikes and go for a ride with a friend or partner
