Living in this highly stressful world, I was just reading an article about 52 proven Stress Reducers. One for every week eh!!! Some of the good ones i like and hopefully i am looking at implementing
1. Procrastination is stressful. Whatever you want to do tomorrow, do today; whatever you want to do today, do it now.
2. Eliminate (or restrict) the amount of caffeine in your diet.
3. Say “No!” Saying “no” to extra projects, social activities, and invitations you know you don’t have the time or energy for takes practice, self-respect, and a belief that everyone, everyday, needs quiet time to relax and be alone.
4. Simplify, simplify, simplify. . .
5. Writing your thoughts and feelings down (in a journal, or on paper to be thrown away) can help you clarify things and can give you a renewed perspective
6. Every day, do something you really enjoy.
7. Do something for somebody else.
8. Allow yourself time - everyday - for privacy, quiet, and introspection.
9. Learn to delegate responsibility to capable others.
10. Have an optimistic view of the world. Believe that most people are doing the best they can.
