How to manage stress in life?
With the advancement of new life, everyone is running at their own pace, a journey to live a happy life with self-comfort and the people you love around, but everyone is surrounded by a significant factor that we call “STRESS” part of their life. Nearly 70% of the Indian population actually suffer from stress about which sometimes they are unaware of.
Stress is part of being human, and it can help motivate you to get things done. Even high stress from serious illness, job loss, a death in the family, or a painful life event can be a natural part of life. You may feel down or anxious, and that’s normal too for a while.
Now, how should one manage stress?
Exercise – To start with physical activity can help improve your sleep. And better sleep means better stress management. Doctors don’t yet know exactly why, but people who exercise more tend to get better deep sleep that helps renew the brain and body. Just take care not to exercise too close to bedtime, which disrupts sleep for some people.
Diet – The benefits of eating health foods extend beyond your waistline to your mental health. A healthy diet can lessen the effects of stress, build up your immune system, level your mood, and lower your blood pressure. Lots of added sugar and fat can have the opposite effect. And junk food can seem even more appealing when you’re under a lot of stress.
Sleep – A common side effect of stress is that you may struggle to fall asleep. If this happens three times a week for at least 3 months, you may have insomnia, an inability to fall and stay asleep. Lack of sleep can also add to your stress level and cause a cycle of stress and sleeplessness.
Be social – Another important thing to keep in mind is to talk with someone who can give better advice and with whom you are comfortable in sharing yourself, e.g., Parents, friend, family or any Physician who knows what you feel in stress and can come up with a solution or whose advice could help you do better.
The quickest method to lessen pressure is by taking a full breath and utilizing your senses what you see, hear, taste, and contact—or through a relieving development. By survey a most loved photograph, smelling a particular aroma, tuning in to a most loved piece of music, tasting a piece of gum, or embracing a pet, for instance, you can rapidly unwind and centre yourself.
