Running won't help when you're mad, but it offers many psychological benefits
phillyvoice.com/running-anger-management-psychological-benefits-/
Quick Glance: Running: Not the Solution for Anger, But Full of Benefits
- Researchers at Ohio State University found that reducing psychological arousal is the best way to reduce anger. However, jogging can exacerbate anger due to its monotonous nature.
- The myth of catharsis was debunked by the study's results, showing that activities decreasing arousal levels are more effective. Running increases arousal levels and is not an effective anger management strategy.
- Nevertheless, running offers many psychological benefits, such as reducing anxiety and enhancing overall well-being. Studies indicate positive impacts on mental health, including improvements in depression and anxiety disorders.
- In addition to anger management, the article also highlights the physical benefits of running, such as extending lifespan and reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes. It is recommended to combine various activities to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
