Catherine Sabiston: 作为运动与心理健康领域的研究者,我认为运动在预防、管理和治疗抑郁症方面都扮演着重要角色。研究表明,运动能够影响大脑中的神经递质,增加血流量,并促进血清素和多巴胺的释放,这些都有助于改善情绪和减轻抑郁症状。而且,运动并不一定需要高强度,低强度的运动同样有效,关键在于选择自己喜欢的运动方式并坚持下去。我强调,对于季节性情感障碍,户外运动尤其重要,即使没有阳光,自然光和新鲜空气也能带来益处。制定运动计划时,要有意识地安排,并记录自己的进展,这有助于增强掌控感和自我效能感。 Brian Goldman: 作为主持人,我了解到科学研究证实了体育锻炼在治疗抑郁症和季节性情感障碍方面的有效性。专家指出,运动不仅能改善情绪,还能分散对消极想法的注意力,增强自信心和社交互动。重要的是,选择适合自己的运动方式,并咨询医疗专业人士的建议,以确保安全和有效。即使无法达到理想的运动目标,任何形式的体育活动都比完全不运动要好。我希望通过这次讨论,能够鼓励更多的人动起来,改善身心健康。
