5 Quick Tips to Relieve Your Stress
Sep 24th, 2009 by Enrico
We can all agree that in these tough times, stress can be a real issue. Relieving stress is easier than you think. Here are 5 simple things you can do to ease your stress. Check back for more quick tips in future posts!
- Set your alarm and wake up fifteen minutes earlier in the morning. You’ll be surprised how smooth the mornings can go.
- Practice preventive maintenance. Your car, appliances, home, and relationships will be less likely to break down “at the worst possible moment.” I bet you wished you cleaned the house before that “surprise” visit from your relatives.
-
Allow 15 minutes of extra time to get to appointments. Never again will traffic cause you to be 5-10 minutes late.
- Learn to say “No!” Saying no to extra projects, social activities and invitations you know you don’t have the time or energy for can save you many headaches. It’s a growing problem today how we “bite off more than we can chew.”
- Stay away from people who are negative and worry often. Negativity is incredibly contagious. If you surround yourself with positive people, your own mood will be better.
