How To Cope With Stress.

 

Stress can affect our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. It is important to recognize the signs of stress in order to deal with it properly.



How To Cope With Stress...

  • Learn what your triggers are. For example; too many things on your 'to do' list or not enough time to complete all the tasks. Always prioritize this list according to importance (Remembering that family always comes first), you may also wish to consider working shorter days for a while if possible, rather than burning yourself out by trying to fit too much into one day.
  • Take some time out for yourself each day – even if it's just 5 minutes! Sit down (or stand if you don't have the time) and take some deep breaths. Stretch your arms above your head, twist from side to side, even do a little dance!
  • If something is making you angry or upset, write it down on paper before trying to deal with it. Now rip up the paper! It feels great doesn't it?
  • Don't be afraid to ask for help if you're struggling. At least then you know that there is someone who cares about your well-being! You don't have to go through this alone. There are many people out there that would be more than willing to lend a hand...we all need one once in a while anyway.
  • Find a stress reliever that works for you. For example; take up a sport, go out for a run or walk, go to the gym, dance around your living room while no-one's looking!
  • Take time to do what makes you happy. There are many things in life aside from work, family, and home duties...do something just for YOU occasionally. It doesn't have to be expensive either...a picnic in the park is an inexpensive way of relaxing and taking in some fresh air.

With regards to How To Cope With Stress, it is also important not only to deal with the 'cause' but also your reaction(s) towards this.

For further support see your doctor or a counselor if necessary.

How To Remove Negative Emotions?

So how do you remove the negative emotions that seem to constantly plague our everyday lives? There are several ways to approach the problem, but it is helpful to first understand what allows these emotions to continue. It has been proven that if we do not release the energy contained in negative emotions they will turn into physical pain and disease for us. For example, if you are angry with someone or something, but instead of getting it off your chest you suppress the anger; you are essentially condemning yourself to a future filled with illness (and possibly death if the situation called for action). If you suppress any kind of strong emotion like this, whether it be anger, fear, or even sexual desire, the energy doesn't just go away. It goes down deep into your system often becoming either kidney stones or cancerous tumors. As stated earlier these types of negative emotions need an outlet. The most positive way to handle them is to release the energy before it causes you real ...
