The Wellness Advantage: Health Benefits of Joining a Country Club | Two Rivers Country Club Blog

Physical health, mental well-being, and socialization are the holy trinity of self-care. Keeping each of these aspects in tune is the key to keeping yourself balanced and well — from playing tennis to healthy dining to mingling in the clubhouse, you can find a comforting place to meet all of these needs at a country club.

The Physical

We don’t need to tell you that sports and exercise are good for you, but we want you to remember that your social and mental well-being can be improved by these activities too. Golf and tennis, whether casual, taking lessons, or in competition, can be a great way to flex your social muscles and tune the mind to concentration. It can even boost your heart health and reduce stress, if these activities are engaged in regularly. If you recharge best alone, a quiet workout in a country club fitness center or a solo session on the green can ease the mind. Your kids can even get in on the wellness by joining a country club’s swim team in the summer. Together as a family, or with friends, you can enjoy a healthy meal at the clubhouse after tuning your physical health with your preferred country club activity.


The Mental

There’s nothing like floating off into the marina to ease the mind. Country clubs have a multitude of relaxing spaces, from the end of the clubhouse bar to a peaceful walking trail. Some may even host events that can tune your mental health, such as group yoga classes. Your brain is a muscle that you use every second, whether you’re conscious of it or not. Choosing to partake in activities that bring you peace, joy, or connection with others is the best workout you can give it. A country club can offer numerous options to achieve this.


The Social

We’ve all learned the importance of in-person socialization in recent years. It can be difficult to find the right spaces to meet new people, luckily country clubs offer a variety of activities, events, and spaces where you can find like-minded friends with similar interests. Two Rivers Country Club offers a marina, golf course, tennis and pickleball courts, waterfront dining, scenic getaway spots, and multiple youth programs to keep kids engaged in their social and physical wellbeing. Entering any one of these spaces is an opportunity to make new friends. Finding the right tennis partner or pal to unwind with at the clubhouse can take care of your social needs while also improving your mental health. Good company tends to make us feel good. Having a supportive country club community accessible to you at any time can greatly improve your mental well-being and regularly provide you with stimulating socialization. A country club is a great place to find these friends, and activities to enjoy alongside their company. 

Finding ways to take care of your mind, body, and social life can yield some difficulties. Forming regular habits to sustain each of these elements is a key advantage of country clubs, as country clubs provide a multitude of spaces and activities that maintain the holy trinity of self-care. They even put the cherry on top with a supportive community to engage in these activities with.
