How to Exercise Away Your Stress - Stress Relief Exercises
Exercise is an effective stress buster. Regular exercise would not only reduce stress and stress related symptoms but also help in prevention of stress buildup.
Ask any tennis player whether she feels stress after an hour of practice. The answer would be an emphatic "No!"
The reason is simple. Physical activity is so involving that you have no time to focus your attention on stressors. Whenever you are feeling stressed or having a stress headache, try exercise and feel its dramatic stress relief effects on your own.
Benefits of Exercise
Here, I am not enumerating all the benefits of exercising in general. The focus here is around the stress-relieving benefits of exercising, some of which are -
√ Exercise distracts you from the causes of stress. √ Exercise builds stamina and enhances productivity. √ Exercise relaxes the cold and tight muscles that contribute to stress. √ Exercise stimulates and tones up the nervous system. √ Exercise improves your focus and concentration. √ Exercise induces a sound sleep. √ Exercise releases beneficial hormones and chemicals like betaendorphin, which promote a feeling of wellness. √ Exercise produces a feeling of well-being and confidence. √ Exercise improves blood flow to the brain and other body systems. √ Exercise maintains a healthy body that is less prone to stress and stressrelated disorders.
All these benefits of exercising and many more have a stress-relieving and/or stress-preventative effect in some way or other. Whenever you are feeling stressed or tense, exercise for a while and feel the instant relief. Moreover, if you can involve simple exercises in your daily routine, you may be able to keep stress at bay.
It is not necessary that you take up any particular form of exercising for stress control. You can do whatever you like which fits your schedule. You can select from;
√ aerobics, √ Yoga, √ recreational sports, √ brisk walking, √ jogging or √ working out in the gym, or with a cycle or treadmill at your home.
However, be careful to maintain a regular exercise schedule and do not take up any activity that could be harmful for any physical condition that you have.
It is important to consult your physician before starting your exercise regimen.
Some Simple Stress Relieving Exercises
Stress Headache or Neck ache: When you are having a stress head- or neckache, take a short break from your work.
1. Stand up and, if possible, walk a few steps. 2. Thereafter, take a few deep breaths and rotate your neck gently in clockwise and anticlockwise movements. 3. After that move your neck leftwards and rightwards. 4. Then you can roll your shoulders in a backward direction slowly and gradually pick up the speed to about one roll in a second.
After a few minutes of exercising your headache and/or neck ache should be gone and you will feel fresh and relaxed.
Tense Shoulders:
1. Stand up and take a few deep breaths. 2. Stretch your neck to left and right as far as you can. 3. Dip your head and gradually bring it back to normal position. 4. Straighten your arms and then take them sideways so your shoulders also move backwards.
Do these movements twenty times.
After that, place your arms on the shoulders and rotate your arms in clockwise and anticlockwise directions twenty times each.
Next, lift your right shoulder and bring it down and then lift your left shoulder and bring it down. Do this ten times.
Lastly, swing your right arm in full circular movements ten times and repeat the same with your left arm.
These exercises, which take just three to four minutes, instantly relieve you from tense and painful shoulders.
Backache: Stand up and breathe deeply.
Stretch your arms sideways and perform swinging movements to your sides with arms still in the stretched position ten times in each direction.
Raise your hands above your shoulders and bend down to touch your feet without buckling your knees. Do these movements ten times.
Then, lie down on your back and, without moving your legs, raise your torso as far you can and return to the supine position. Perform this exercise ten times.
Finally, lie down on your stomach and raise your torso and return to normal position ten times. These exercises may provide instant relief from a sore back.
Note: You must consult your doctor before performing these exercises.
The exercises and methods are mentioned here just for information of a general audience. If you are suffering from any disease or a specific physical condition or are pregnant, take extra care.
"Training gives us an outlet for suppressed energies created by stress and thus tones the spirit just as exercise conditions the body."
