The reversed Eight of Swords shows us a person who is facing difficulties with determination but without a big picture. This card indicates that your strength lies in the ability to tackle one problem at a time, putting practical strategies into practice. You are then able to focus on the practical and achievable aspects of improving your mental health through exercise. The Hierophant represents wisdom and common sense, two fundamental elements when it comes to taking care of one's mental health. Your strength here lies in the knowledge that every decision and every step must be reasoned and considered to achieve the desired results. The discipline required here is a major strength that you can leverage to get the results you want. Finally, the King of Wands shows us a leader who is ready to lead with wisdom and energy towards a well-defined goal. This card symbolizes the ambition, perseverance and motivation needed to complete a project. In this case it represents the inner strength needed to engage in physical activities that would help improve your mental health.

The reversed Eight of Swords, while being a positive sign, points out how often you can confuse concrete and abstract goals. The tendency not to see the whole picture can hinder the healing process and keep you from achieving your intended results. The Hierophant talks about the difficulties you may have in trying to achieve goals in a consistent and disciplined way. You may feel that you lack the motivation to take continuous action over time. Finally, the King of Wands reminds us how you can be too ambitious and demanding in addressing the challenges related to your mental well-being. Excessive aggressiveness can lead to results that are not always satisfactory and can also lead to further depression.

The Eight of Swords reversed tells us that you should consider better articulating your goals when it comes to your mental health, looking at the whole picture rather than individual isolated aspects. To do this it could be useful to talk to a professional or someone who has experience in the field to get a clearer idea. The Hierophant suggests using the discipline to maintain a consistent schedule over time and be true to it, even if you aren't inspired by immediate enthusiasm. Take some time to plan the tasks that need to be done in relation to physical activity and make sure you can maintain them over time. The King of Wands invites you to accept your limitations and be aware of your inner motivation before taking any action towards your mental well-being. Do small constant actions rather than occasional big gestures; also always remember to take time for yourself, so that you can rest your mind and body from the efforts faced daily.

In conclusion, the three tarot cards indicate that in order to improve your mental health through physical exercise, three fundamental elements must be preserved: articulation of goals, discipline in applying them over time and personal motivation to keep them constant. Take some time to reflect on how to build these three pillars of your mental health, carefully planning each of the aspects involved; after which you will finally be able to embark on a lasting path towards complete psycho-physical well-being!
