How to be less stressed

Hi everyone!

My name is Caroline and I’m 26 years old.

During my degree I came across several situations caused by stress and pressure.

A while ago I’ve shared my situations with my friends, and I’ve found out that I’m not the only one dealing with this kind of issue. problems caused by stress is much more common then I thought.

Therefore i decided to searching for ways that will help us to take the weight of our shoulders, at least a small amount, and will make us feel much more relieved.

1. Drink chamomile tea

On early mornings and busy days, you might be tempted to refill your mug with a second (or third) cup of coffee. However, the coffee jitters are real – and they can make you feel more stressed than you actually are.

Next time you’re craving a cup of warmth and comfort, consider tea.

2. Listen to music

Research shows that music, especially classical and instrumental, relaxes our minds and bodies by slowing our pulse and heart rate, lowering blood pressure and decreasing the levels of stress hormones.

3. Be mindful

Mindfulness is a trend that’s on the rise today, with more people “living in the now” to deal with stress and anxiety.

If you’re feeling panicked or overwhelmed, take a few moments to focus on your breathing and your surroundings. This will help you regain your train of thought and find your center.

5. Go for a Walk

A 10 minute walk can literally do wonders for your mind, as well as boost those feel good endorphins. A walk through a park, a beautiful garden, a farmers market or the beach.
