Both great activities - yoga particularly has such a great effect on calming the mind and releasing tension. Hope you recover soon so you can enjoy both!

There is increasing evidence that aerobic exercise (like cycling or running) has significant anti-anxiety and anti-panic effects. Tissues that are metabolically active in the body - including the brain- are better able to handle lactic acid build up. The brain becomes more efficient at removing lactic acid that can damage regions in the brain involved with fear. More studies are being done in this area in order to determine how specific exercise training can be targeted as anti-anxiety therapy.
Members, do you make time for exercise during the week? How does exercise affect your symptoms of anxiety or panic?
How do you (or can you) incorporate activity in your day to day life?
