On Stress and Anxiety
We often hear of people complaining that they are ‘stressed’. Yet, many of us don’t sit down to identify what could be the stressors in our lives.
There are many ways to relieve stress – from taking a vacation to learning how to manage it well. One stress technique would be to practice deep and heavy breathing. The body is relaxed by breathing slowly for a count of seven, then breathing out for a count of eleven. Repeat this count until heart rate slows down. Thinking about stressful situations, or having ìwhat ifî thoughts could break one’s relaxation and give them stress. Avoid such thoughts and think of what can be to prevent such stress. As they say, prevention is better than cure. Unfortunately, there isn’t much oral help to deal with stress but you may need to step up your antioxidants to stay healthy. Those who are overweight may need to consider diet supplements.
It is also important to know what things cause you stress and anxiety. Knowing what specific things or situations can make you feel stressed will help you avoid these stressors. Lack of sleep, no exercise, and a poor diet can also contribute to stress. Having a healthy regular diet, enough sleep, and regular exercise will also do a lot to fight anxiety.
