Doing exericises to reduce anxiety

[lutegavel]

Since I quarantine myself at my own house it gives me a feeling of anxiety and fear. So to help reduce the feeling I decided to do exercises just to reduce the negativity that I feel. How about you, how do you get rid of if you have the same feeling as mine?

I have not yet had to quarantine during the pandemic, but I exercise all the time, partly as a form of stress/anxiety relief. As I have been sitting here at my laptop in the last hour I have mixed in 20 minutes total on my elliptical machine (in four, 5 minute bursts), and also done 4 sets of planks. I feel good now man. I think exercise will be a great tool for you.

Working out definitely is more than just physical gains, it's also mental. Personally, when I get a pump I feel rejuvenated and relaxed in my thoughts and in my body.

[Celestia]

Working out has definitely helped me with my anxiety whether it’s at the gym or just a quick jog at the park.
Getting fresh air is always good.

One thing that I noticed also helped with my anxiety was cutting back on all the junk food I was eating and feeding my body the nutrients it needed instead.
Taking care of your body will help you improve physically and mentally.

Other things you can try are Aromatherapy, CBD Oil and meditation.

During morning i go outside in park to walk/run and feel the breeze and also swimming in the pool sometimes.
It somehow makes me feel more relaxed and forget the problems.

Obviously. I mean, it helps with my intrusive thoughts since I have pure O which is a type of OCD that's based only on intrusive thoughts rather than with compulsory actions or behavior.

Helps me with my BDD which can be described as a form of OCD with body images, and intrusive negative images, and thoughts ab myself so I totally get you on that.

Definitely work out. It makes your body feel good. Helps with the sads and bottled up aggression.

Try ashwagandha for anxiety.

Listen to the girl - cut the junk food. Its a little thing psychologically that makes you feel good when you eat good.

I do calisthenics and run outside all of the time, used to be a hardcore gym rat but covid times with everything closed made me realize how important functional strength is, also how cheap an olympic bar and plates is.

Exercise makes you look and feel so much better, I recommend it 100%. Honestly, even beyond the immediate release of dopamine, the realization you are making gains will make you feel great! Also when things start returning back to normal, the gym is a really good way to make friends.

[Celestia]

Try ashwagandha for anxiety.

Taking this made me jittery and irritable for some reason.

I think it will really help you, a lot of people do it to relieve anxiety, even a walk outside will do you good. I've also been experiencing low mood problems for the past week and am prone to emotional eating because of it but going outside for a run really helps and I feel refreshed afterwards. Hopefully it's a short term thing and not ppd for me. Hope your anxiety improves x

[Aldaris]

Meh. I barely notice the changes. I can still see my friends and family, go shopping, etc. In here, people complain about the stuff all the time, yet nothing really changed that much, really. Try being on a solitary confinement in a cement tomb as small as a parking space for a couple of days and the true feelings of isolation will kick in.

I'm happy to hear your responses! I appreciate it all. Thank you

Some physical activity, even some brisk walking to get fresh air and sunlight and a change of scene from being indoors, helps with the dull routine of being indoors.
If you are not willing or able to go out, then, some exercise,, such as a few minutes of high-intensity floor exercises, or something like yoga, can at least get the heart pumping, some adrenaline in your system, and get out of the funk from too much sitting around.

Precisely. After doing my exercise, I also do surfing the net and reading some articles and found this one helpful. I just want to share it thinking someone can benefit from it. https://adaa.org/learn-from-us/from-the-experts/blog-posts/consumer/top-ten-covid-19-anxiety-reduction-strategies,

The best thing to do is stay away from watching the propaganda on the television and internet. Reading books is a great way to relax. Get outside and sit in the sunshine helps as well since most of the population on earth is deficient in Vitamin D which causes all sorts of issues. One of the main causes for anxiety and fear is viewing social media. Being near people that have these negative traits does NOT help at all. It is better to be alone than in bad company. When we are near negative people we will feel their negative energy as. Stay off any and all prescription synthetic poison pills. Research Bach Flower Remedies. They WORK! FOCUS on YOURSELF and find hobbies that you enjoy to do. Do not focus on negative things :-)

4-5 mile walks or hiking depending on weather and time constraints. Maintaining my tan is almost as important as stress relief. I also do some meditation before bed.

Doing the same thing here. I don't let the day end without exercising.

[lutegavel]

How are you right now guys? Feeling good?

I'm fine. Still doing the usual but I always keep myself aware especially nowadays where a new covid strain has been found recently.

Yes, you are exactly right that you should be aware of everything around you especially these days.

Burpees man. Embrace the suck --they have not only physical benefits but mental ones such as increasing mental toughness.

I've been reading a lot of books. Funny thing you should mention that I recently read a book on that and Vitamin D is the most common vitamin deficiency worldwide and it affects more than 2,000 different genes or 6% of the human genome and it is more like a hormone than other vitamins. I take vitamin D supplements but going outside in the sunshine is best :
