During social distancing, one of the best ways to keep healthy is to trump your coronavirus anxiety with positive activities.

Is the collocation "trump...anxiety" correct in English?
 
It's often not a question of 'correctness' with vocabulary.

I think there are countless better verbs you could use. If you want some suggestions, try to explain to us exactly what you mean.
 
It is natural that you are anxious during the novel coronavirus. But you can outdo the anxiety with positive activities such exercise, writing, communicating with people via video...
 
mitigate
negate
lessen
 
distract yourself from?
 
Is the use of "trump" intended to imply a double meaning, considering the name of a certain person?
 
If it isn't, you should think about avoiding the word for the next 5 years.
