10 Exercises for Stress Relief

People love to exercise for chiseled muscles and to keep the love handles away, but everyone needs to know the importance of exercise for mental health as well. Show your brain some love by trying out these de-stressing methods.

 

 

1. All forms of yoga
Vinyasa is more stimulating while Hatha isomer relaxing and breath focused. All forms include deep breathing which trigger relaxation and reduces blood pressure while promoting focus.

 

 

2. Gardening
Yes, this can be a form of low impact exercise. Weeding can burn up to 200 calories hourly, while raking or mowing the lawn can burn up to 600 an hour. Contact with soil and the earth is refreshing and healing.


3. Walking
It’s not high intensity, but walks (especially in a nature setting) can greatly release muscle tension, decrease stress levels, and relax your nervous system.

 

 

4. Dance classes
Try out a local salsa or ballroom class, which can raise heart rate while improving agility. It also has mental benefits – those who dance have a lower chance of dementia thanks to new steps challenging your mind.
