Exercise as Stress Relief
How Physical Activity Reduces Stress
Regular exercise is one of the most effective ways to combat stress. Physical activity boosts endorphin levels, the body’s natural mood lifters, and reduces cortisol levels. In the U.S., people who exercise regularly often report lower stress levels.
Whether it’s jogging, yoga, or strength training, incorporating movement into your daily routine can help you manage stress more effectively. Exercise not only benefits physical health but also improves mental well-being.
