ABOUT STRESS:(

MEANING OF STRESS,,,

Stress weakens your immune system and damages your overall well-being. Therefore it’s vitally important to know how to avoid feeling stressed. These twenty tips will provide you with enough knowledge to remain stress-free even in the most demanding circumstances.

WAYS TO RELEASE STRESS,,,

1.Know your priorities

If you don’t clearly know what’s important in your life, it’s easy to lose yourself in all kinds of trivia and end up with headaches and other stress indicators. Your priorities should be always in your mind because they will guide you to take actions that will improve your life and enhance your well-being.

Stress shows that you’ve gone off track and you need to readjust your actions or behaviour. Stress often occurs when you work on some project and you get focused on unnecessary components of it. Because of that your mind gets confused as it cannot decide what you are working towards so you get stressed as a result.

2.Think about one thing at a time

Your mind can only deal with one thing at a time and if you introduce more that two goals to you mind, you will surely end up feeling stressed. The only reason large projects seem stressful is because you try to think of everything you would need to accomplish at once. You should divide a large project or problem into small steps and execute those steps one at a time. This will make you more productive and you will not feel overwhelmed, therefore you will avoid getting stressed.

3.Have a clear objective

You also get stressed when you don’t clearly know what you are working towards. You should define the objective so that there wouldn’t be any doubt as to what kind of results you want to get. When you clearly know what you are working towards, your mind will influence your actions so that you would produce the results that you want to get.

4.Exercise

Exercise strengthens your body and refreshes your mind. It also allows you to take your mind off the subject that stresses you out. When you do that, you let your subconscious mind provide solutions to the problems that you are faced with so you don’t need to consciously think about everything non-stop. When you go back to the subject that stressed you out after the exercise, you will find that it’s not nearly as stressful as it was before the exercise.

5.Eat Healthy

Healthy food makes you feel better because it nourishes your body and gives you more energy. Because of that you are able to cope with situations that can stress you out much more effectively. The more live food (fruit and vegetables) you eat, the more energy your body will have and the more you will be able to deal with overwhelming situations without feeling stressed.

6.Meditate

Meditation relaxes your muscles and lets your conscious mind rest. It lets you get in touch with your body and feel what it needs. If you meditate regularly, you become much more relaxed in your everyday activities and that keeps you at ease even in situations that used to stress you out.

7.Listen to music

When you listen to music you raise your vibration from feeling stressed to being happy, relaxed or energised. However, sometimes when you feel stressed you will not want to listen to your favourite music because the vibration of stress and that of joy are so far apart. If this happens, still try to play music because this will get you out of stress very quickly.

I’m sure you had such experience when you felt like you had no energy, but then you started playing your favourite music and your state changed completely. You started dancing or singing and you suddenly had the rush of energy in your body that you could not access several minutes ago. That’s how powerful music can be. It can break any negative emotional state you are in.

8.Get a good sleep

There’s nothing more refreshing than good sleep. What I’ve noticed is that sometimes a short nap during the day can give you more energy than all night’s sleep. I’m not sure why this is so but that was definitely the case for me on many occasions.

So if you feel stressful, take a nap. During sleep you let your conscious mind rest and your unconscious mind can find solutions to the problems you are faced with.

9.Balance your life

Sometimes you feel stressed simply because you spend a very large amount of your time in one area of your life and you pay no attention to the other areas. If you, for example, work all the time, no wonder you are stressed. This is an indication that you should cut your work hours and do something else to let your body relax a bit.

10.Have a laugh

Laughter removes stress because it reduces the level of stress hormones. Even if you don’t feel like laughing, try at least to smile. This will still reduce your stress to some degree.
