How does physical stress like doing exercise or hard labor activities relieve mental stress?
I'm curious about how physical stress can relieve mental stress. Can you tell me more about that?
Sure, physical activity releases endorphins, which are natural chemicals in the brain that act as painkillers and improve mood. Exercise can also reduce stress hormones, like cortisol, and increase the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin, which can help regulate mood and reduce anxiety.
