Stress is an inevitable part of life, but it is often underestimated how much of an impact it has on your physical health. Stress can have a huge impact on your spinal health. Here’s how you can manage stress for a healthier spine:

• Exercise: Regularly engaging in physical activity can help to relieve stress. You could go on a walk, do some yoga, go swimming, etc. Not only doing these things helps to release endorphins, but helps to strengthen your muscles.
• Proper Breathing: Deep breathing exercises can help to calm the nervous system by reducing stress and promoting relaxation. 
• Mindfulness and Meditation: Mindfulness practices such as meditation can help to reduce stress levels. Try to spend 10-15 minutes a day focusing on your breathing and being present in the moment.
