With all of the demands placed on us during the holidays, how do we cope when we feel as if we’ve reached the breaking point? According to Angie Ferguson, try a stress-busing workout. Ferguson is an exercise physiologist and a coach for the USA triathlon and cycling events. There are several different types of workouts to consider. Yoga is a well-accepted stress reducer that can help you relax. Look for gentle or beginner classes. If you want something more challenging, try an exercise bootcamp.

Lifting weights is good for body and bones as well as reducing stress.
