10-Minute Jog Boosts Mood
A recent study found that just 10 minutes of very slow jogging, at speeds ranging from 3 to 6 kilometers per hour, can temporarily improve mood and enhance brain functions. The study involved 24 healthy individuals, and the results showed that even very light physical activity leads to increased activity in the prefrontal cortex, which is linked to executive control and attention. Additionally, it improves the ability to concentrate and ignore distractions. Despite the study's limited scope and number of participants, the findings suggest that simple movement, even at walking speeds, may be beneficial for improving mood and focus. However, larger studies are still needed to confirm the long-term sustainability and benefits of these changes.
