Stress is something that makes someone feel irritated, angry, frustrated and nervous, such could create physical problems and imbalance in emotion. There are ample sources of Stress and they are hard to resist, some are carried down by stressors and other naturally pops into mind. Stresses can’t be completely erased but they can be minimized by using some good, healthy habits and keeping distance from things they trigger it. The three effective ways to deal with stress could be-
Engage oneself into physical activity- physical activity like, running, swimming, dancing, gym, yoga and others are considered to be one of the effective ways for reducing stress. Instilling healthy habits in your routine could make you more focused and divert your mind from negative, stressful things. As we breathe into fresh air while walking could make us feel more fresh and relaxed, thus bringing and practising such good habits in your ecosystem could bring positive result to your stress and health.
Eliminating all substance abusive things from life- another way to deal with your daily stress is to stop using all abusive things like, alcohol, smoking, and caffeine like substances immediately. When we feel depressed, stressed, anxious, or boredom we grab a drink, or a cigarette from the pack, we think that it will make us feel better, relaxed and divert our mind atleast for sometimes, but that’s too dangerous because it make us more vulnerable to the problem or situation. Gradually such habits make us addictive to it, and less productive towards life, and we silently lie down to a more dangerous thing. Thus it should immediately be stopped and healthy habits should be implemented for a better result.
Open and share your feelings to others- it’s very important to share your feelings whom you can trust and rely upon, it could be your friend, life partner, parents or any other trustable person. Expressing and sharing your problems could make you feel better and free, because we sometimes need a shoulder to lie down our head and tell all about our problems. This could be beneficial as the person could help you to deal with our situation and come out with a better approach or solution to the problem.
