Stress

Keep It Under Control

Save yourself from stress by paying attention to stress levels. Take notice of the different events in your life that trigger stress. Then make a plan to get it under control. Here are some tips to help keep your stress levels down.

  • Eat regular meals and exercise regularly.
  • Try to get enough sleep.
  • Try to avoid alcohol, nicotine and excessive caffeine.
  • Incorporate some relaxation techniques into your daily regimen.

Shake your body. Everyday you need to find ways to move your body. Use the stairs instead of the elevator. Take a walk with your child or dog. Chase your children, play ball with some friends or mow the lawn. Anything that moves your limbs can be a fitness tool and a great stress buster.
