Relieving Stress by Exercise
Exercise Reduces Stress
Relieving stress by exercise can be fun and has other health benefits, as well. While exercise reduces stress, it also releases endorphins, which help you to feel positive and happy. Exercise can also be an excuse to go outside to enjoy the outdoors, or it can be a way to meet new people. Keeping your body fit and healthy helps to keep your mind active and your emotions in balance. And, in case you’re wondering...exercising is fun! That is NOT a typo. If you get rid of your mental baggage that tells you that exercise is drudgery, you will discover that it is lots of fun to have a healthy body--and to exercise!

Those Wonderful Endorphins
When you get involved in stress relief exercise, your body produces hormones called endorphins. Those great little endorphins help you feel positive and happy. Endorphins are responsible for the wonderful feeling that you have after running a race or swimming a number of laps--tired and happy--and very relaxed! Exercise, and stress will just melt away!

Getting Motivated to Exercise
While we all know about the physical benefits of exercise--improved cardiovascular health, better flexibility and mobility, lower blood pressure and slimming down--did you know that you actually think better and feel more calm when you exercise?It’s a fact. You can improve every aspect of your life, if you will just take the time. Relieving stress by exercise is so healthy and so much fun--that I just can’t understand why more people don’t start to move their bodies. Actually--to tell the truth--I do understand. Many, many people have been programmed to believe that exercise is hard, that it is time-consuming, and that is not fun. I hear you saying, “What can I do to change my beliefs?”
