7 Ways to Beat your STRESS Now

August 13, 2007

I meet people when they say “Stress is part of life and I can’t beat it”. Not true, there are lots of ways to beat Stress. Stress is out of tension for something happening or not. When you get stressed, your body get tensed, your mind gets tensed and you start thinking of all the pain involved in the process of doing the work.

Let me tell you a secret, Stress cannot be caused by an external force. Your work does not speak to you and say “Get stressed” or “Feel the tension”. Its the way we perceive things and get tensed and Stressed. Stress is just a State of mind and if we have control over it our life definitely gets better.
Now how can you beat the Stress?

1. Exercise:Any physical activity is bound to beat stress. Be more active and exercise more if your stressed more. I do lots of training programs and if I don’t have my morning jog, i feel more tired

2. Music: High energy music will increase the blood flow in your body and make you relaxed. Alternatively Baroque Music will soothe you.

3. Take a Break: Do what you like doing and take a break and start your work again. Even at work place you can have something that can give you a great break. Like a scrabble, pictionary or many other things.

4. Write on a Paper: Take a paper and scribble down your thoughts (Alternatively pick up the phone and talk to your friend)

5. Relax: Just relax, take a massage, take a nice shower.

6. Change your Mind: Start to focus on the most relaxed and most joyous things that you have.

7. SLEEP (This is the last thing that you must do though
