While it is easy to sit in a comfortable place and advice, it can be really painful when you don't know how to handle it. Some of the skills we don't teach children and even students in good schools are related to emotional health. Handling stress is one of the most needed skills in today's time. Don't you think so?
Stress is real
I have spoken to many people who handle stress daily about how they live with it. Some of the worse situations make people feel suffocated, triggering headaches that last more than 2-3 days and even blur out their eyesight for some time. That can be an extremely painful experience unless handled professionally.
If you are someone who is going through these tough times, definitely speak about it to your loved ones and see a professional who can help you with coping with the pressure. There is no shame in seeking help when you need it. Remember that your family and loved ones need you. Talk to someone today.
Here are a few tips that can help you manage the pressure at work or otherwise.
- Listen to good music - soul-lifting, calming, rock, devotional - whatever helps you.
- Eat healthy, light and take good care of your body and mind
- Spend time meditating - practice calmness, mindfulness, forgiving
- Get some good sleep - try and get to bed at a fixed time. Good quality sleep helps
- Walk - when angry, tired, stressed out, thinking, or on a phone call, step out and take a stroll
- Practice gratitude - be thankful for what you have, how lucky we are!
- Spend time with kids, family, friends, pets, plants and do whatever makes you joyful
- Laugh more - find occasions to laugh, smile
