managing stress 2

modern way


1.Become a Good Listener

Being a good listener is one of life's important skills; it helps prevent misunderstanding and helps build friendships. Poor communication is a major cause of stress, so learn how to talk, write and listen effectively.

2.Take Breaks and Vacations

Remember, stress is often called the "fight or flight response." It's probably not a good idea to flee from problems; but it is often a good idea to take a break. Research shows that people who take regular breaks and vacations are more productive than those who work straight through without any breaks.

3.Get a Good Night's Sleep

A good night's sleep is also important for managing stress. Try to relax before sleeping to improve the quality of your sleep.

4.Learn To Relax Or Meditate

Relaxation doesn't come naturally, especially when you're under stress. Tension is part of the body's natural response to stress. You can significantly reduce the impact of stress by learning relaxation skills such as progressive muscle relaxation, meditation, massage, mental imagery, deep breathing or certain types of yoga.

5.Use Your Creativity

Yesterday's solutions probably won't solve the problems of tomorrow. We need to be creative—try new ways of solving problems. There is creativity within all of us. Bring out your creativity by experimenting, asking lots of questions, and playing around with ideas.

6.Laugh, Develop a Positive Sense Of Humor

Laughter may not be the "best" medicine, but it is a powerful tool for reducing stress and having a better quality of life. Laugh with people, not at them.

Combine this two methods insyallah
