Reportedly, biking can help put us in a mindful state – reducing stress, improving mental and physical health and even increasing overall happiness in life. Taking 20-30 minutes away to concentrate solely on exercise can rejuvenate mood and lessen anxiety. “National Wellness Month serves as a valuable reminder of the crucial role that mental health plays in one’s overall wellbeing,” said Blue Cross VP of Corporate Citizenship and Public Aff airs Jeff Bellows. “For the third year in a row, we’re promoting healthy commuletries for older adults in the community. Working with classmate Ben Gowrie, Amelia’s eff orts raised $2,180 for the Emergency Closet. Amelia also extended her eff orts to Chelsea Jewish Lifecare, where she works part-time. She collected dozens of donities and the power of mindfulness with our ‘Mindful Mondays’ initiative, and we hope Metro Boston residents can get outside, practice mindfulness and enjoy the wholebody benefi ts of a Bluebikes ride.” Blue Cross has been the title sponsor of Bluebikes since its launch in May 2018.
