Topic Tuesday // Exercise as Therapy // Tues. 19 June 7pm AEST

We’ve all heard over and over again that exercise can be beneficial for your health. But can it be beneficial for your mental health too? Research is beginning to explore the role of exercise as a therapeutic intervention for a range of mental health issues ranging from depression to PTSD. For this Topic Tuesday, we’ll be hearing your stories about exercise – what you like, what you dislike…and most importantly, what works to support your mental health.

So please join us, to share your experiences. We promise, no running shoes or lycra required 😜

I'm new here - what is Topic Tuesday?

Topic Tuesday runs from 7pm - 9pm AEST monthly. Each month we focus on a different topic, with the session facilitated by a Community Manager or Moderator. Sometimes Topic Tuesday will feature a special guest, who is an expert in the topic.

The first post of the thread (this one) will give you an idea of what the topic is and what will be covered.

How do I get involved?

Topic Tuesday takes place right here! It's text based, so no software is needed. During the session, to keep up with the latest posts hit the 'refresh' button on your browser for the latest posts (it doesn't automatically update). Keep an eye for page numbers at the top & bottom of the page, and jump to the highest page number for the most recent post.

Throughout the session, the facilitator will put questions out for you to answer, usually asking for your own experience on the topic. To contribute to the session, just hit the 'reply' button and share your thoughts. No answers are right or wrong and everyone is welcome to get involved.
