Managing Depression with Exercise

Exercise is a great tool that doesn’t only keep our bodies healthy, but also eases depression by triggering the release of feel-good chemicals in the brain. If you have a child or teenager who’s struggling with depression, you can use this worksheet to help them maintain an exercise routine.

This two-page fillable worksheet features a list of exercises they can try and asks them questions that allow them to figure out the best exercise to do and when to do it. The second sheet includes a chart where kids and teens can track their exercise, as well as tips on increasing their motivation.
