Another practice that brings mind and body connection together, by being present in the moment and finding a sense of peace, is Yoga. It is more of a physical practice that incorporates bringing focus on your breathing, mediation, all while configuring your body into different poses. This encourages relaxation and helps reduce stress, while also challenging your body physically.  While getting yourself into a sweat, you are increasing those feel-good hormones (endorphins) allowing your body and mind to reduce feelings of stress, anxiety, depression, inflammation etc. On the flip side, yoga has been studied and has shown signs that may increase heart health, quality of life, sleep quality, flexibility and balance, and even so much as helping prepare the body for childbirth and its recovery afterwards.
