Sport isn’t just about fitness - it’s about feeling human again! ⚽💪 Really proud to have collaborated with the University of Birmingham and Professor Ruth Page for their project, Influencer Stories of Mental Health and Young People.
Thank you so much to sports coach Josh (
@joshuadeeks) for providing his insights!
The key takeaways:
💬 Connection matters - playing sport with friends gives you the human bond we all crave.
🏃♂️ Movement resets your mind - even a casual kickabout or a run can lift your mood.
🧠 Consistency beats intensity - small, regular habits support your mental health more than you think.
