General Discussion [TIPS] TOP5 Stress Management Activities

[radioguy33]

I’ve compiled the following list of stress relievers that are most appropriate for us.
Check it out.

1. Sleep

Busy persons, with their packed schedules, are notorious for missing sleep. Unfortunately, operating in a sleep-deprived state puts you at a distinct disadvantage. You’re less productive, you may find it more difficult to learn, and you may even be a hazard behind the wheel.
Don't neglect your sleep schedule. Aim to get at least 8 hours a night and take power naps when you need them.

2. Visualization

Using guided imagery to reduce stress is easy and effective. Visualizations can help you calm down, detach from what’s stressing you, and turn off your body’s stress response.

You can also use visualizations to prepare for presentations and score higher on tests by vividly seeing yourself performing just as you’d like to.

3. Exercise

One of the healthiest ways to blow off steam is to get a regular exercise program going. Students can work exercise easily into their schedules by doing yoga in the morning, walking or biking to campus, or reviewing for tests with a friend while walking on a treadmill at the gym.
Starting now and keeping a regular exercise practice throughout your lifetime can help you live longer and enjoy your life more.

4. Music

A convenient stress reliever that has also shown many cognitive benefits, music can help you to relieve stress and either calm yourself down or stimulate your mind as your situation warrants. We can harness the benefits of music by playing classical music while studying or working, playing upbeat music to ‘wake up’ mentally, or relaxing with the help of their favorite slow melodies.

5. Positive Thinking and Affirmations



Did you know that optimists actually experience better circumstances, in part, because their way of thinking helps to create better circumstances in their lives? It’s true! The habit of optimism and positive thinking can bring better health, better relationships, and, yes, better grades.
Learn how to train your brain for more positive self-talk and a brighter future with affirmations and other tools for optimism. (Discover if you’re an optimist or a pessimist.) You can also learn the limitations to affirmations and the caveats of positive thinking so you aren't working against yourself.[/align]
