10 Ways you can Reduce your Stress.
Stress is the 'wear and tear' our bodies experience as we
adjust to our constantly changing environment.
These 10 tips below can be applied your life and all of
your relationships as it pertains to school, work, family, your significant
other and friends. My hope is that you find positive ways to help manage all
stress that you are dealing with.
1 - Manage Your Time Effectively: Keep a To Do list
or daily planner and make sure to include time for yourself and time for stress
reduction activities.
2 - Take a Break: Schedule several short breaks
throughout your day to help minimise your stress. Get up and stretch, read a
book, go for a walk or simply call a friend.
3 - Minimise Interruptions: When focusing on
something important, make sure to block off a period of time when you can work
without being disturbed or distracted.
4 - Eat Healthy Foods: Try to avoid foods high in
fat, sugar and sodium. Be sure to snack on something healthy and do not skip
meals because this will lower your energy levels.
5 - Exercise: Regular physical activity is one of
the best ways to deal with stress. It releases endorphins and gives you a
natural high. Try walking, bike riding or simply exercising in the comfort of
your own home.
6 - Think Positively: Instead of focusing on
negative thoughts, focus on the positive things in your life and say to yourself
at least one positive thought each day.
7 - Learn to Say NO: Don't feel guilty when you have
to tell others no. Taking on additional projects or work for others when you are
busy will only cause you more stress.
8 - Put Stressful Situations in Perspective:: Will
it matter a month from now? What about a year from now? Is it something that you
can control? Ask yourself these questions when you are faced with a stressful
situation.
9 - Get Enough Sleep: Studies show that most people
need between 6-9 hours of sleep, but most people give up sleep when they are
under stress to finish more work. Be sure to get the proper rest so that you can
energize your mind, body and spirit.
10 - Find Someone to Talk to: Talking to your
friends or family can help because it gives you a chance to express your
feelings. However, problems in your social life or family life can be the
hardest to talk about. If you feel like you can't talk to your family or a
friend, talk to someone outside the situation. This could be your priest,
minister, a therapist, your family doctor or a coach.
And of course don't forget that all important hypnosis
