7 Stress Management Tips
Stress Management Tips
Learn to breathe. It sounds dumb, after all you are breathing now. But is your breathing shallow or deep? How much oxygen are you taking in on every breath? Controlling your breathing is easy and quick. As soon as you start to notice your breathing you're on your way. Then start to breathe slightly deeper and hold your breath for a little longer. This simple technique could be all you need for your day-to-day stress management. Get up and walk about. Exercise is important but even a walk to the water cooler and back is better than nothing. A short break from whatever was stressing you, coupled with some walking, will work wonders. Count to ten. Just like your mother taught you to do. Couple this counting with taking in deep breaths on each count and you'll likely reduce your stress almost instantly. Apart from anything else, this technique gives you the space you need to realize whether or not you should be stressed by the situation. Take a multivitamin pill daily. Often when we are stressed our diet gets less healthy. Whilst you need to eat a healthy diet, a multivitamin pill will help compensate as well. Eat healthily. As mentioned in the point above, stress management can be as simple as making sure that you eat both healthily and regularly. Put on some mood music. If you're in an office environment this may involve using your iPod or MP3 player. You almost certainly know what type of music you de-stress best with. Play it! Get a hobby. Hobbies can be a good way to relax and take your mind off other things. People often become engrossed in their hobby and it can be a good way to deal with your stress management in your day to day life.
These stress management tips should get you on your way to reducing the stress in your life to a more tolerable level. If your stress levels are still high, remember to consult your doctor or other professional before your stress levels impact on your health.
