Body Doubling Session

What is it? ‘Body Doubling’ involves partnering with another focused individual, working alongside you to enhance concentration and to curb distractions. Through anecdotal, students find this strategy helpful in making tasks more enjoyable, reducing isolation, and fostering a sense of accountability.

Aerial Fitness: Yoga & Stretch Session

At Aerial Fitness we believe that your mental wellbeing comes first! We host weekly wellness Wednesdays to check in on our members and have a more chill session to destress and unwind from the pressures of uni. For de-stress week we will be hosting a yoga and stretching session where we will guide you through some calming poses as well as working on some back and leg flexibility poses to get our bodies moving during exam season!

As a club our top tips to escape the daily stresses include going for a walk, making plans to socialise with friends, trying something new to focus your energy into, and taking time to be mindful (yoga, meditation or stretching). We would also recommend throwing yourself into a club or society at refreshers if you haven't already so that you have a consistent option to exercise, socialise and unwind!
