Exercise Physiology for Mental Health and Wellbeing

Exercise is one of the better supported things you can do for mood, sleep and energy. The catch is that the periods when it would help most are the periods when starting feels impossible. That is the part we plan around.

How we approach it

• Start smaller than feels useful, so the first week is a win rather than a test
• Fixed times and a fixed place, because routine does more work than motivation
• Movement you do not hate, which matters more than the perfect program
• Measure something other than weight, like energy, sleep or how many sessions you got to
• Supervised sessions at first if accountability is the thing that is missing

What this is and is not

This sits alongside whatever mental health care you already have, and it does not replace it. Jordan is an exercise physiologist, not a psychologist, and will say so plainly. If something comes up in a session that needs other support, he will point you back to your GP or treating team.

Working with complex needs

Jordan works regularly with people managing mental health alongside disability, neurological conditions or long-term pain, where motivation, fatigue and capacity all interact. See complex and neurological conditions.
