We’ve all heard how keeping active helps keep your endorphins high. Anytime someone has said they’re feeling anxious or overwhelmed, another person says to go outside or go for a walk. They’re not just used as distractions but as a balance of stimulants to relax you.
On today’s show, Dr. Melissa Green, Licensed Psychologist, joins Lu to show us how Harnessing Physical Activity can help you Achieve Emotional Wellness. Dr. Green is a licensed clinical psychologist and registered yoga teacher with 25 years of experience in the mental health field. She is a native of the state of Georgia in the US. However, she considers herself a “global citizen” who is eager to explore and connect with people worldwide. Traveling to 30 countries has helped her learn about other people’s perspectives on life. Her global experiences have shaped her personal beliefs and professional practices as a psychologist.
In this insightful episode, Lu and Dr. Green explore the intricate relationship between emotional wellness and our overall well-being. The discussion begins by unraveling how emotional wellness significantly influences various aspects of our lives, including mental health and interpersonal connections. Dr. Green also explores the scientific foundations behind how exercise can positively influence our emotional wellness.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
