April 8, 2024- April is Stress Awareness Month, and according to Dynarex, is a time to recognize the impact stress has on our lives and explore effective methods to manage it. Chronic stress has been linked to conditions such as headaches, gastric disorders, elevated blood pressure, and weakened immunity, to name just a few.
Exercise is a powerful weapon in relieving stress – and even a small dose of physical activity can have significant benefits. With spring in the air and warmer weather on the horizon, there’s no better time to get moving.
Chronic stress forces the body to work harder, even when it’s supposed to be resting, just to keep things running normally. That’s why it’s so important to find ways to effectively manage stress through aerobic exercise, strength training, yoga and stretching, and more.
