How to get rid of stress?

Question

I have so much to deal with everyday. I've tried lots of things to help me deal with it but nothing seems to work. I just want my days to go by easier, are there any tips to get rid of stress that may help.

Answer 1

Try working out that seems to relieve alot of peoples stress and the doctor always says that it helps I went to the gym for four years and it helped me.

Answer 2

Having too much to do in a short amount of time is extremely stressful. And, to deal with it day after day is brutal on yourself.

Can you take short breaks in the midst of your day to recharge, to do and think of things that you like to do like check your email or get a coffee?

When you have free time ofr yourself, are you able to enjoy it? And if you don't have free time, why not? It is important to have down time for yourself.

Also, changing your perspective can make a big difference. I read a while back in a newsgroup that this most impactful change that can be made by someone in any situation. There are so many things that we cannot change; but, we will always be able to control how we look at life. I've found this to be pretty accurate.

Other ways to get rid of stress -- get yourself a massage, use aromoatherapy, exercise -- invest time in yourself.

Hang in there!

Yoga works for me. I also discontinued taking on extra job responsibilities that I had been cramming into my week, which had been leaving me little time to do things that I really enjoy. What a difference! I now have more time to hike, swim and relax with an interesting book.
