By implementing somatic exercises into your daily routine, you may be able to reduce stress patterns that are being held in your body. When stress patterns are held in the body, it can drive high cortisol levels up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>BetterMe: Health Coaching app helps you achieve your body goals with ease and efficiency by helping to choose proper meal plans and effective workouts.

Studies have shown that somatic practices such as body scanning and breathing exercises can reduce physiological stress markers. Research has also shown that breath-focused movement can significantly decrease cortisol levels (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cyprusjmedsci.com\/articles\/doi\/cjms.2021.2020.2390\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reason somatic exercises can help lower stress levels is that they help shift the body out of fight-or-flight mode and into rest-and-digest mode. This means the body moves from the sympathetic system being dominant to the parasympathetic system taking over. When you engage in somatic work, this encourages balance to be restored as the body is able to become grounded again and feel safe rather than threatened.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Read more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/somatic-activities\/\">Somatic Activities: Meaning, Benefits, And How To Get Started<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Somatic_Exercise_Reduces_Stress_Levels\"><\/span><b>What Somatic Exercise Reduces Stress Levels?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><b> Somatic Breathwork:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Slowing your breath, especially exhalation, can reduce stress and activate the vagus nerve.

Some types of intense exercise can actually increase your stress levels . This is particularly true when the activity is excessive or you don\u2019t rest enough to recover between sessions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what types of exercise may cause increased stress levels? While high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workouts are effective for fitness, HIIT temporarily increases stress . That\u2019s not all bad, but prolonged high levels of stress can cause problems over time. particularly for those who are already stressed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Long sessions of cardio (e.g. running or cycling for over 90 minutes) can also significantly elevate stress levels . Something else that must be considered is that any type of exercise can increase stress if your body isn\u2019t given time to recover, so it\u2019s important to listen to your body and let it rest as necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>BetterMe will shake off your mental funk, rid you of your energy-zapping habits, and help you sculpt the body of your dreams.
