February 02, 2022 by Jeremy Lindy

When you harness the power of the mind-body connection you can use positive thoughts, to help your body relax and unwind. Mind-body exercises are a great way to reduce stress and improve your well-being. If you’re looking for a few stress relief options, consider these four exercise practices.

1 . Pilates 

If you’re keen to improve your core strength, Pilates is a fantastic mind-body exercise. You can do pilates with or without equipment, making it a very versatile way to exercise. Pilates Reformer machines do however have additional benefits, such as low-impact exercising making it ideal for people who are of different fitness levels, or those recovering from injuries. This piece of equipment can also build your strength, balance, and posture. The activity was first designed to target the core, like yoga, it’s also useful to improve flexibility. There are plenty of benefits of a Pilates practice including:

  • When you activate the deep tissues of your muscles, this helps your nervous system to function better.

  • Studies have shown that Pilates is helpful to reduce anxiety and depression.

  • Can improve cardiovascular health and lower blood pressure.

 2. Tai Chi

It’s a great mind-body exercise that can improve well-being, flexibility, movement, and mood. The great thing about Tai Chi is that it’s suitable for people of all different levels and abilities.
