How to deal with stress?


12 years ago 0 1022 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Vincenza... these are great tips... it all comes down to keeping balance in your life... yes?  I've gotten so far off balance I don't really know how to get back up again.  Posting is one way.  I've been isolating and that doesn't help any.  What causes me the most stress right now is ME and my dumb "issues".  No matter how hard I try I can't seem to avoid myself... I tried calling but apparently that isn't acceptable... sigh... I do need to get back to walking and I do have a friend I could meet for lunch.  I will try those things.  Good reminders.  Thanks.

Feeling a little anxious? Stress and anxiety go hand and hand. Here are a few tips to help keep tension to a minimum.

·      

·      

  • Set priorities for yourself. Organize your time so that you do the things that are most important to you first. Don’t get too hung up on the smaller, less important things.

·      

  • Recognize things that cause you the most stress. Afterward, look for ways to get around them. For example, if you find meeting with someone in person stressful, see if you can make a phone call instead.

 

  • Don't try to do everything yourself. Ask your friends and family members to help with some of your responsibilities.

 

  • Talk about your feelings with family and friends. Be sure you take time for social activities and exercise. You'll feel more relaxed, energized and not as stressed.
