I'm stressed and burned out. Can physical exercise actually help spiritually?

When I see somebody really stressed, sometimes I think all they really need is a rigorous 5 mile hike, just to wear themselves out and get some of the energy out of their body. The body and the soul are knit together. So when the soul is overburdened or stressed or worn out by life, sometimes you just need a physical breather. Go sit in a sauna, no joke, and the funny part is the research all backs it up.

You need something to decompress that isn't destructive, and most of the time when you're doing something physical, you're not thinking about your problems. So find something you can do to decompress that isn't destructive, and mostly that means do something with your body.
