HealthDay (2/15, Miller) reports that research indicates “walking, jogging, yoga,” and “strength training…are the most effective exercises for easing depression.” Those “activities can be used on their own or combined with medication and psychotherapy, according to an evidence review.” Although “low-intensity activities like walking and yoga are OK, the more vigorous the activity, the bigger the benefits, the Australian-led team found.” The findings were published in the BMJ.
