    5 ways that lifting weights can help your mental health
    Feb 3 2024
    While I am NOT a certified mental health professional I am a certified personal trainer and nutrition advisor. In this episode - topic suggested on the podcast's Instagram account - I share 5 ways that lifting weights can support your mental health. I also offer tips on how to get started.


    The first half of the episode covers some of my history with eating disorders, alcohol and drug abuse. While I don't go into details, if these are triggers for you please consider skipping this episode.


    I'd love your feedback: leave a review on Apple Podcasts, Spreaker, or however you listen to podcasts. Message @beyondtyeborderlinepod with your feedback and questions.

    Christmas can be a stressful time whether you're surrounded by people or alone.


    I decided to put out an impromptu episode with 5 tips for coping with the day with the minimum of suffering and self-sabotage.


    I mentioned the Samaritans in this episode. It's a UK based service.
