MANAGING STRESS EFFECTIVELY

  • Stay Healthy – During periods of stress, be sure to eat right and get enough sleep. Stress management takes energy.
  • Talk – Just talking things out with another person can relieve stress. People aren’t directly involved can often see solutions to your problems that you cannot.
  • Redirect – Your body reacts to all stress by producing adrenaline, which raises your energy level. Rechannel all that extra energy into something worthwhile.
  • Relax – Try imagining yourself in a quiet, peaceful place, such as under a tree by a lake. As you relax, try to empty your mind of troubling thoughts.
  • Laugh – Spend time with people who enjoy a good laugh. See a funny movie after an especially stressful day. Laughter relieves stress.
