1) Do you exercise regularly?

Answer C: 1 Point

You can significantly reduce the level of stress you feel with some exercise. Working out three or more times a week is recommended to increase longevity and overall health as well as reducing stress. Studies show that regular exercise can reduce stress in the short term and the long term. More high-energy exercises like weight training or martial arts can provide a good physical outlet where you can release pent-up tension, while walking or yoga can have a more soothing effect.
