1) Climbing
Visit your local climbing centre such as The Climbing Hub in Bradford. Climbing involves concentration and thought as well as physical exercise which helps keep you focused and clears your mind of outside worries.
2) Yoga
Yoga helps to strengthen the parts of the brain that plays a key role in memory, attention, awareness, thought, and language. Since the pandemic the world has discovered the power of yoga classes online. Check out Yoga with Adrienne to access a FREE 30-day Yoga challenge with 15-30 minute daily routines released on Youtube.
3) Walking
A short brisk walk in the Winter season can be a great anecdote to the stresses of life. Whether on your own, with a friend or with a local walking group there are many options and benefits. For inspiration check out The Yorkshire Shepherdess Amanda Owen and Alastair Campbell walking alone in the Yorkshire Dales with a 360 camera on BBC Four’s new Winter Walks series.
4) Hiit
Hiit (High Intensity Interval Training) workouts became very fashionable when Joe Wicks hit the scene with his short, fun workouts requiring nothing more than a little space in your living room. Joe’s workouts range from 10-minutes up to 30-minutes long and are aimed at all abilities.
5) Dance
Join a local dance class or turn up your speakers in your living room and put on a dance class workout. There are so many free classes online from Ballet and Jazz to Break-dancing!
