🌻What suggestions or advise can you give people to manage stress and improve physical fitness

Humans are always buzzing with activities and I guess we all must learn how t manage stress in one way or the other. I guess when we are working we must try hard to use music. Music is great therapy as it lightens the mood releasing more happy hormone or dopamine into the blood stream causing a better health.

Stress due to anxiety, high blood pressure amidst other emotions conflict or problems could lead to more intense hormone being released into the blood stream one of which is adrenaline or cortisol which is a stress hormone. Stress management is crucial in ending stress and attaining a successful life ahead.
