Get Your Groove On, Get Your Stress Out
Feeling stressed out? Anxious? Overwhelmed? Grab your partner, head off to your bedroom, and...well, we hope you know what to do from there. Sex is a great stress buster, Stuart Brody, a professor of psychology, tells Self magazine. 'Intercourse, specifically, is linked to better psychological and physical health,' he says, including improvements in blood pressure and the release of feel-good brain chemicals. So the next time you're feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders, go to it. But, of course, don't forget to take safer-sex practices with you.
