How Running Benefits Your Mind?

We have heard often that running makes mind calmer. And, it rightly does. But, not many have looked at the scientific aspect of the same. Looking at how running brings changes to our mind would help us understand ourselves and our brain better. Let’s check out some ways in which our mind reacts to running and the science that goes behind it all! While one may feel fatigued by running, there is this feeling of contentment and a surge of energy once you’re done.

We’ve launched an exciting new feature just for you. Check it out!

"Being from Army family background (Grandfather, Father, brother and cousin's brother's) spent my childhood in Military area, knowing how much dedication, sacrifice they go through in profession and personal front without expecting anything. Firmly devoted and dedicated to their service they are into. Acclimatize extreme weather conditions, Temperatures ranging 50 and - 60 degree just to protect us and our Nation. That's one of the reasons always wanted to contribute in some way for our Army welfare or in Cause.

Ones I met one of my school friend in reunion and when she came to knew about my liking and participation in many marathon events and how I had won many medal across various run, As aspiring athlete she suggested me to use Impact app which will help me to raise fund for Charity by running. When I came to know about this excellent initiative I decided to contribute as much as I can. Started using Impact from April 2019 and targeted to raised atleast 25k through running. Each day I run and do strength exercises balancing between Work, Personal and Social life was difficult. The obsession of achieving the milestone gave me the courage to overcome all the difficulties.

My daily routine starts with morning 1hr practice for 5-10km running and strength exercises. On weekends I wake up around 5am to complete between 10-20km. Initially the reaction of people were worth watching when they noticed my routine/ schedule whether it's hot summer season, cold or heavy rains I had never stopped my practice a single day. Many a times people stopped me and inquired in detail when they came to know that I am running for cause which they started appreciating. Used to run earlier for fun or fitness but now there is a motive to run for cause and run for others. It's has changed the complete definition and mindset of running.

Till now I have raised more than Rs 25,000 for charity by completing the +2500 km, Would like to continue further without stopping. I will try to raise funds for the cause as much as possible from my side. I wanted to share a small note about me in this email hope it helps others in some way." - Sumit Chalke, Mumbai (Maharashtra)

Let's walk for those who work hard for our food!
Did you know that 75% of Indian farmers are women! These are women who toil hard on the field all day, care for their families, kids and cattle for the rest of the day, and still find time to want to do more!

Comment 💚 if you believe that Mental health is as important as physical health. If you have the power to make someone smile, even for a bit, do it! The world needs more of that, you never know whose day you make 😊

Around 2 in every 10 people are affected by mental health problems. We at Impact advocate the removal of stigma around Mental health, we realize the strength it takes to pull yourself out of a dark place, and if you’ve done that today, we’re proud of you! 🤗
