5 healthy habits to fight stress

Updated: Jan 14, 2019

Your mind deserves higher than to be loaded down with the in no way-finishing task of stressful! Some strain can be beneficial and may result in actual problem-solving, but a lot of our stress makes no sense and even harmful. So better learn to manage your stress.

We all have stress — at work, at home, and on the road. Sometimes we can feel especially stressed because of a bad communication with someone, too much work, or everyday hassles like getting stuck in traffic on the road.


Slow Down

If it’s not urgent, sleep on it and respond tomorrow. This works especially well for stressful emails and social media trolls.

Always have a plan and build a timeline to complete your work. Plan in advance and allow sufficient time to get the maximum crucial things performed without having to hurry. In view that we're human and not a machine, consequently being gentle.


Sleep More


Make sure you sleep enough since our body need rest to. Try to get six to eight hours of sleep each night. We tend to reduce our sleep, in an effort to adjust and cope with workload and stressful environment. So usually don't forget to #slowdown.



Give up Bad Habits

Too much alcohol, tobacco, or caffeine can increase blood pressure.  Cut back or quit to decrease anxiety.

The consumption of caffeinated beverages is known to be a coping strategy used by students or workers in the management of stressful academic situations and workload. At extremely high doses its consumption can induce a condition known as ‘caffeinism’. Symptoms include anxiety, nervousness, restlessness, insomnia, excitement, psychomotor agitation, dysphoria, and a rambling flow of thoughts and speech.


Be Active Everyday


Exercise can relieve mental and physical tension.  Find something you think is fun and stick with it. Play a favorite sport like volleyball (my stress reliever) , tennis, or basketball. Go for a run or bike ride to clear your head and take a walk in nature. Being close to nature also can reduce stress.





Get Connected


A daily dose of friendship in a great medicine.  Make time to call friends and family so you can catch up. Avoid being alone when you are in stress, talk to people and share your problem. Sometimes, we can feel the burden is reducing when we share it. Everyone have problem and have stress so we don't have to feel shy about it.
