Throttle Therapy & Why We Ride | The Science of Motorcycle Stress-relief
WHY DOES RIDING A MOTORCYCLE RELIVE STRESS?
Motorcyclists have long expressed that going for a ride is a stress reducing experience and essential for their mental wellness. In this video, I back up the concept of "throttle therapy" with a few key studies about body language, hormones, focus, and a Harley-Davidson funded study from UCLA measuring stress and adrenaline. Let me know in the comments what your experience has been with motorcycling and stress relief. What about it gives you peace or presence?
