By engaging in physical activity, you are able to reduce muscular tension and eliminate the physiological changes that triggered the fight-or-flight mechanism. Further, during vigorous aerobic exercise lasting 30 minutes or longer, morphine-like substances referred to as endorphins are thought to be released from the pituitary gland. These substances not only act as painkillers but also seem to induce the soothing, calming effect often associated with aerobic exercise. Research has also shown that moderate-intensity exercise has an immediate effect on a person's mood, and the effects last up to 12 hours following the activity. Thus, exercise mitigates the daily stress that leads to mood alterations. Exercise is free and easily accessible to everyone. Pick an activity you enjoy and use it to combat stress, blue moods, anxiety, and depression.

The body responds to stress with a rapid-fire sequence of physical changes known as the fight-or-flight response. This stimulation originates in the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland in the brain. The hypothalamus activates the sympathetic nervous system and the pituitary activates the release of catecholamines (hormones) from the adrenal glands. These hormonal changes increase heart rate, blood pressure, blood flow to active muscles and the brain, glucose levels, oxygen consumption, and strength - all necessary for the body to fight or flee. In cases of both fight and flight, the body relaxes and stress dissipates. If the person is unable to take action, however, the muscles tense and tighten instead.

Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) stretching is based on a "contract-and-relax" method and requires the assistance of another person. The procedure is as follows:1. The person assisting with the exercise provides initial force by pushing slowly in the direction of the desired stretch. This first stretch does not cover the entire range of motion. 2, The person being stretched then applies force in the opposite direction of the stretch, against the assistant, who tries to hold the initial degree of stretch as close as possible. This results in an isometric contraction at the angle of the stretch. The force of the isometric contraction can be anywhere from 20 to 75% of the person's maximum contraction. 3. After 3 to 6 seconds of isometric contraction, the person stretching relaxes the target muscle or muscles completely. The assistant then increases the degree of stretch slowly to a greater angle and, for the PNF technique, the stretch is held for 10 to 30 seconds. 4. If a greater degree of stretch is achievable, the isometric contraction is repeated for another 5 or 6 seconds, after which the degree of stretch is slowly increased again and held for 10 to 30 seconds. 5. If a progressive degree of stretch is used, steps 1 through 4 can be repeated up to five times. Each isometric contraction is held for 3 to 6 seconds. The progressive stretches are held for about 10 seconds until the last trial, when the final stretched position is held for up to 30 seconds.
