You can follow followings tips must relief from stress.
How can you manage stress?
1. Identify your stressors.
You can’t fight it if you don’t know what it is. If a certain situation or person at work pushes your buttons, own that feeling.
2. Don’t ignore stress.
(Because it won’t go away on its own.) When you know you will be encountering this person or situation, stand up straight, put a smile on your face, and see how much better things go when you approach them positively and confidently.
3. Don’t think you will eliminate all stress at once.
Your health, emotional state and the day’s events are going to affect your stress levels, and some days will be better than others. Identifying what bothers you is a start. Then tell yourself you have to go deal with so-and-so, or that the deadline you used to think was so far away is now here. Make it fun if you can, but keep your focus and resolve.
4. Avoid alcohol.
Why do people drink when they are stressed out? Because, for the short term, it works; intoxicated people aren’t usually stressed about too much. But that only lasts so long. Having a few drinks with friends after work can be a positive, bonding activity, in which case, you are socializing. Using alcohol as a way of managing stress, on the other hand, is a negative coping mechanism, one that could even result in a chemical dependency on alcohol and a lifetime of trouble.
5. Eat right.
You know what’s good for you and what’s bad for you. Don’t eat a lot of refined sugar, fatty foods like potato chips or white-flour-based foods; these snacks might satisfy cravings, but you usually end up hungry again soon after consuming them. Eat more fruits and vegetables, and if you don’t like them, find ways to enjoy them. Maybe you dip them in organic peanut butter or almond butter, or you find a vegetable or fruit you have never had before like papaya or bok choy. A couple other tips: Eat at times of your choosing and in pre-portioned amounts, and drink water instead of soda or energy drinks.
6. Exercise regularly.
With exercise, you will feel good physically as your muscles tense and relax. You will also feel better mentally because exercise lowers hormones such as cortisol, which causes stress, and causes your brain to release endorphins, the hormones that make us feel happy and content. If running isn’t feasible, try walking; you’ll receive almost as many health benefits, and most everyone can do it. You could also try weightlifting or a group exercise class like yoga. Choose something that you can fit into your weekly schedule. Ideally, you should exercise daily, but even three times a week will make a big difference in how you feel.
7. Find some alone time.
Take 15 to 30 minutes out of each day to be alone and reflect. People might demand your time throughout the day, but decide which part of it is yours, and stick to it. This will make you a better friend, family member and co-worker, and will help you manage your stress for the day. During this time, you can enjoy your coffee with a newspaper, close your eyes and relax, or practice any suitable form of mediation; even just a few deep breaths with your eyes closed will provide immediate relief. This alone time will help you achieve focus, and you will be able to approach your duties calm and assured.
8. Get good sleep.
Waking up refreshed is key to battling stress. A couple tips: Have a set bedtime and bedtime ritual. Enjoy a cup of herbal tea while reading, and think about giving up your favorite late-night TV if it keeps you from getting an adequate amount of sleep, which is typically eight hours. If you have trouble falling asleep, try some natural remedies before asking your doctor for sleeping pills. You’ve probably heard of drinking warm milk, but did you know cherries, bananas and sweet potatoes also have chemical properties that help you sleep?
