35 Tips for Beating Stress
Drink
chamomile tea. See a
foot reflexologist for better circulation. Listen
to a comedy recording; watch a live comedy show or video.
Stretch.
Volunteer to help others for diversion; new activities; new friends. What will
you have given during your lifetime? Change
your daily routine, dress, route to work, furniture arrangement, etc. Set up
a regular time to relax, a "relaxation break" instead of a coffee break. Avoid
over-scheduling yourself for too many tasks. Avoid
"keeping up with the Joneses". Make a
daily "to do" list to tackle items in order of priority. Don't
spend $100 worth of energy for a 10-cent problem. Break
down a major task into several small tasks.
Delegate work to others. Set
realistic goals. Give
compliments and enjoy taking compliments. Never
say, "I can't do this or that". You get what you think about. Make a
list of tension reducers and things to do "to get outside of yourself". Make
your personal and family life a priority over other demands.
Balance work with play, proper diet, sleep, exercise and relaxation. Be thankful for your comfortable bed, friends, food, water, a chance to work, freedom, and many other blessings!
Learn to make your mind quiet through concentration exercises and meditation
Think positive. If you find yourself thinking negatively, immediately switch to thinking positively. Be in control of what enters your mind. Open the door for the positive and close it for the negative.
