9. Listen to soothing music
Find music that you feel helps you sooth your muscles. Get 4 – 5 such music (MP3 or any format) and listen to it when you feel under stress. In this times when iPod and Mobile phones allow you to play back MP3, relieving yourself from stress anytime/anyplace is possible.
10. Work on your hobby
If you have a hobby, then I would recommend that you participate in it. If you don’t have a hobby, then pick up one. Participating in your hobby helps you focus on something that you enjoy which in turn helps you to relax your mind and body.
When is professional help needed for stress management?
There’s a fine line between feeling stressed out while still being able to function effectively, and the debilitating, even paralyzing phenomenon we think of as burnout or breakdown. The difference is between handling your stress on your own, and being unable to figure out what to do because the pressures of life have become so overwhelming. It's time to seek professional help if you:
- Feel that stress is affecting your health.
- Feel that it will never end.
- Feel so desperate that you think about quitting your job, running away, taking a drug overdose, or injuring yourself.
- Feel depressed, sad, tearful, or that life is not worth living.
- Lose your appetite and find it difficult to sleep.
- Are managing your stress level by eating, sleeping, drinking alcoholic beverages, smoking, or using recreational drugs.
- Have worries, feeling and thoughts that are difficult to talk about.
- Hear voices telling you what to do.
