Answer:

positive coping strategy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Coping strategy is a set of cognitive and behavioral efforts to deal with specific external and / or internal demands. These demands are understood as stressful situations, as they end up exceeding the resources that the person has to face them. The coping strategy is characterized as a process, because it changes according to the context, that is, the subject will present different coping strategies according to the contextual demand.

This coping strategy is considered positive when the individual decides to combine stress with situations beneficial to his body and health. An example of this can be seen in the question above, where Josene, facing a stressful moment, decided to invest in her health and began to practice physical exercises.
