Regular exercise helps you fight off stress
We know exercise is good for your mental health, but a new study shows that it can help you become more resilient in the face of life stressors. Researchers studied over 1,400 people who had experienced stressors such as death of a loved one, heart attack, divorce, job loss, or disability. Those who exercised before and after a stressful event had lower levels of depressive symptoms after the stressful event.
