exercise is good. good CBT is also good (but there's some frightenly badly applied CBT-lite out there which discourges people from questioning anything outside themselves and trying to make the world less-crazymaking and/or to supress and stuff away totally reasonable and actually potentially useful "negative" feelings like anger and grief). It prolly works best for inteligent people with typical cognitive patterns but you can't have everything. inactivity is good too - silence and peacfulness and being in nature and retreats and getting enough sleep and not trying to do too much and things like that. I think baking fits more under creativity/craft (unless it's bread baking which is pretty physcial) and that's a good thing too.
Feeling listened too and supportive is pretty darn important too - i don't think any of the other things can work without that.
yes no maybe
