SUPPORTING MENTAL HEALTH IN NZ

Ready to take on a new challenge, improve your fitness and do your bit to support mental wellbeing in NZ? Move for Mental Health starts Monday 22nd March, and we’re donating ALL proceeds to I Am Hope – New Zealand’s youth and community focused mental health support group.

Studies show a strong correlation between physical activity and greater mental wellbeing, so we’re on a mission to encourage Kiwi women to prioritise their physical and mental health while raising awareness and funds.

FAQs

Everything on DediKate until Sunday 18th April. This includes all our workouts, nutrition information, recipes, running plans and more!

You choose! We know everyone will have different goals and preferences, so you can choose from our amazing selection. If you need help just get in touch with us. We also recommend you plan what workouts you want to do at the start of each week.

The entire $10, less our payment platform fees goes to the Mental Health Charity called I AM HOPE. The fee is 2.9% plus 30 cents - so from your $10, $9.41 goes straight there.

Last year over 500 members and new members took part, so we raised over $5000. This year we hope to raise over $10,000.

We are able to do this amazing thing for charity, because of our current members! So we thank you so much. If we gave this deal to exisiting members or those already on free trial, we wouldn't financially be able to do this.

Benefits of exercise for mental health

Regular exercise can have a profoundly positive impact on depression and anxiety and has been proven to be a great way to relieve stress.
Exercise improves memory, helps you sleep better, and boosts your overall mood.
And you don’t have to be a fitness fanatic to reap the benefits of exercise on mental health. Even modest amounts of exercise can make a difference.
No matter your age or fitness level, you can learn to use exercise as a powerful tool to feel better.
Exercise promotes all kinds of changes in the brain – including neural growth, reduced inflammation, and new activity patterns that promote feelings of calm and wellbeing.
Exercise releases endorphins, which are powerful chemicals in your brain that make you feel good.
Exercise is a great opportunity to find some quiet time to break out of negative thought cycles that feed depression.
Exercise can help you sleep. Even short bursts of exercise in the morning or afternoon can help regulate your sleep patterns.
While exercise releases mood-enhancing chemicals like endorphins and serotonin, it can also work double-time by getting you out in the world and helping reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation.

Member Stories

Here how exercising with DediKate has helped the mental health of some of our members

Exercise has helped my mental health 100%, taking time for myself, be it only 20 mins or longer gives me time to clear my head, it helps me refocus and at times when I'm stressed I do a workout and I come out of it feeling more grounded and in control.

Aleshia Houghton

Before exercise I feel groggy and lazy. Like I’m missing any sort of motivation. Getting a workout done makes me feel like I’m clearer and more focused and like I can actually achieve something with my day. I’m so much more positive with a bit of fresh air in my lungs.
