New Delhi: Stress is a part of daily life, but incorporating regular physical activity can work wonders for your mental health. 

Exercise helps release endorphins, your brain's feel-good neurotransmitters while reducing cortisol levels, the hormone linked to stress. Here’s a list of the most effective exercises to help you combat stress:

Yoga
Yoga combines physical poses, deep breathing, and mindfulness, making it a triple threat for stress relief. Start with simple poses like Child’s Pose or Cat-Cow Stretch if you're a beginner.  

Walking
A brisk walk, especially in nature, helps clear your mind and regulate your mood. Aim for 30 minutes a day in a park or green space for maximum benefits. 

Dancing
Dancing combines movement and music, helping you shake off stress and feel joyful. Take a dance class or just freestyle at home to your favourite songs.  

Strength Training
Lifting weights or using resistance bands channels frustration into physical effort, leaving you with a sense of accomplishment. Start with light weights and increase gradually to avoid strain.  

Cycling
Cycling allows you to explore new places while working up a sweat, releasing pent-up energy.  
Ride outdoors for fresh air, or use a stationary bike if you prefer indoor workouts.
