We already know that stress is a common and inevitable part of life, which can affect our physical, mental, and emotional health — causing symptoms such as headaches, insomnia, anxiety, depression, and irritability. While we can’t always control our stressors, we can control how we cope with it. One of the most effective and enjoyable ways to cope with stress is to exercise.

Exercise is well-known for its many health benefits, such as improving cardiovascular fitness, strengthening muscles, preventing chronic diseases, and enhancing mood. However, not all types of exercise are equally beneficial for stress relief. Some types of exercise, such as high-intensity interval training (HIIT), can actually increase stress levels by raising cortisol, the stress hormone, and causing inflammation, which can impair the immune system and the brain. While HIIT can be great for improving performance and burning calories, it may not be the best choice for stress relief.

That is why gentle workouts, such as yoga, Pilates, tai chi, and qi gong, are gaining popularity and recognition as effective and enjoyable ways to manage stress and stay fit.

Feather-Like Fitness

Gentle workouts tend to have low impact, meaning they don’t put too much pressure on the joints and muscles, and they involve regulating breathing, which can promote relaxation and calmness. They also combine physical movement with mental focus, which can help us detach from our worries and negative thoughts, and connect with our body and the present moment.

I have personally experienced the benefits of gentle workouts for stress relief and fitness. As someone who works in a fast-paced and demanding environment, I often feel stressed and overwhelmed by the deadlines, expectations, and challenges of my job. I used to think that intense workouts would be good way to cope with stress, such as running, cycling, or lifting weights — thinking that they would help me burn off some steam and feel better. However, I soon realized that these workouts weren't for me, as they added more stress to my body and mind, making me feel more tired, sore, and irritable.

That’s when I decided to try gentle workouts, such as yoga and simple stretching exercises. I was skeptical at first, thinking that they would be too easy, boring, or ineffective for my fitness goals. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed and benefited from them, as they helped me relax, breathe, and focus, while also challenging and strengthening my body in different ways. I felt more energized, refreshed, and happy after each session, and I noticed improvements in my confidence, resilience, and optimism in dealing with stress and other aspects of my life.

Powerful Connection with Oneself

Excessive intensive workouts will wear your body out in the long run, and it is time to start incorporating gentle workouts into your weekly routine. You may alternate them with your moderate-intensity workouts, such as brisk walking, swimming, or dancing. This balance would allow you to reap the benefits of both types of exercise, without overloading your body or mind with too much stress.

I also find that gentle workouts are more accessible and adaptable, as they can be done anywhere, anytime, and with minimal equipment. I can do them at home, at work, or even outdoors, depending on my mood and availability. I can also modify them according to my level, preference, and goal, making them more or less challenging, relaxing, or fun.

If you are looking for some gentle workouts that double as stress relievers, here are some ideas you can try:

  1. Yoga: It involves physical poses, breathing exercises, and meditation, which can help you relax, stretch, and strengthen your body and mind. There are many types and styles of yoga, such as hatha, vinyasa, power, Bikram, and yin, which vary in intensity, pace, and focus. You can choose the one that suits you best, or try different ones to spice up your routine. You can also use props, such as blocks, straps, or bolsters, to make the poses more comfortable and accessible. You can find many online videos, apps, or podcasts to guide you through yoga sessions, or join a live or virtual class to learn from an instructor and interact with other participants. Some benefits of yoga include improved flexibility, posture, balance, blood circulation, immunity, and mood.
  2. Pilates: This helps you tone, sculpt, and stabilize your core and other muscles through controlled movements, breathing, and alignment. Pilates can be done on a mat or on a machine called a reformer, which adds resistance and challenge to the movements. You can also use accessories, such as balls, bands, or rings, to enhance your workout. You can find many online videos, apps, or podcasts to guide you through Pilates sessions, or join a live or virtual class to learn from an instructor and interact with other participants. Some benefits of Pilates include improved core strength, posture, flexibility, coordination, and concentration.
  3. Tai Chi: Try a form of martial art that involves slow, graceful, and flowing movements, breathing, and meditation, which can help you balance, relax, and harmonize your body and mind. It can be done individually or in groups, indoors or outdoors, and with or without music. You can also use weapons, such as swords, fans, or sticks, to add variety and challenge to your practice. You can find many online videos, apps, or podcasts to guide you through tai chi sessions, or join a live or virtual class to learn from an instructor and interact with other participants. Some benefits of tai chi include improved balance, mobility, flexibility, strength, endurance, and mental health.
  4. Qi Gong: A practice consisting of gentle movements, breathing, and meditation, which can help you cultivate, circulate, and balance your life energy, or qi. Qi gong can be done individually or in groups, indoors or outdoors, and with or without music. You can also use sounds, colors, or visualizations to enhance your practice. You can find many online videos, apps, or podcasts to guide you through qi gong sessions, or join a live or virtual class to learn from an instructor and interact with other participants. Some benefits of qi gong include improved immunity, vitality, relaxation, and well-being.
