Pet an animal. Studies have shown that this reduces blood pressure.

Sorry to hear you've been under pressure and feeling stressed out. It's not necessary to spend a lot of money - trying to look at the bigger picture and seeing the stress triggers for what they are is really important. This webpage has some simple ideas and advice for handling stress:

Physically, you can reduce your weight, cut down on salt, to help lower B.P.
Re: Mentally, regular exercise is known to help.
Very good help is to get your mind off yourself. One of the greatest boosts you will ever get is by doing something for someone else. Try visiting an abandoned elderly person in the nursing home. You will come home feeling like the Queen.

Chewing (chewing) gum is very relaxing.They even hand them out at exams to calm down the kids. A stress ball i hear works very well.

Relaxing is natural from seeing impermanence.
