  • Exercise primarily benefits mental wellbeing through improved self-perceptions, resilience to stress, and better sleep quality, with some evidence indicating enhancements in cognitive functions, especially in older adults.
  • Overall, moderate and consistent exercise should be promoted as a viable strategy for improving mental health and wellbeing for both clinical populations and the general public, with little risk of dependence or addiction.]
