9 Secret Ways to Lower your Stress Load

7. Exercise

One of the most important approaches to dealing with stress is exercise. It takes your mind off your problems and helps your brain secrete those feel good chemicals that keep you healthy and happy.
Some people exercise to control weight and get in better physical condition to become more healthy or physically attractive, but exercise and stress management are also closely linked. Exercise provides a distraction from stressful situations, as well as an outlet for frustrations, and gives you a lift via endorphin’s as well. You don’t have to attend a gym – just get out into nature and enjoy a walk or hit the beach.
