Exercise is a great way to reduce stress, especially if you have a stressful job. If you feel you need nutritional supplements, try taking vitamins formulated for stress. Otherwise, eat healthy balanced meals, lay off the late night snacks.

Have something you can hit that won't damage anything. Like a punching bag. Take all the stress out on that until you're so tired you don't care.

I go to a hypno-psychotherapist. It helps to have someone to talk to without being judged and getting help in relaxing. Then I de-stress through a hobby, sewing. When I am just about to explode, I drop everything and sit on my sewing chair and turn on the machine. Think also of If they are close by maybe you can call them for coffee or something.

Try and find the cause of your stress, and work on it, exercise helps a lot , along with a good nights sleep, and drinking enough water, in fact I think they have a book out titled STRESS AND WATER.\nIt is so hard today in our fast paced life styles, not to be stressed out. I could also say not to worry, but doesn't seem to fit with life styles today either.\nLaughter is so therapeutic, and is a good medicine.

Stay online, so that in between breaks you can surf the net, or fix a quiz (pretty exciting stuff for me), drink lots of energy drinks and coffee, turn on the television while you study, sit on an uncomfortable chair, like a hard one, so that it's not comfy enough to snooze on.\nKeep some strong smelling lemon or citrus nearby to sniff on. Studies show they help to keep you feeling 'refreshed'.

It's hard to fight stress while you are in the stressful situation. At home I read, clean and do artwork. Try hiding in teh Br for a few minutes or just plain tuning out.

Two words.  LOT LIZARDS.  That should relieve some stress.  Or you could try those breathing exercises.  Take 3 deep breaths and hold for 3 seconds and keep doing it until you feel better.

Clench your fist very tightly and imagine all your stress going into that fist.  Then slowly relax your fist and let your body relax with it.  :)

There are many different ways to decrease stress in your life.  However, there are also different types of stress.  For example if your stress is from trauma or some other sort of seriously stressful experience, then my suggestions will not be sufficient and your stress may require some short-term therapy (often known as PTST - Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).  If your stress is the normal everyday stress that we all put up with (job stress, kids, responsibilities, financial, muscle tension, traffic, etc.) then I offer the following suggestions.\n\nMany men prefer to destress through activities such as playing group sports, hanging out with their pals or working out at a gym. Women can also find ways of relaxing by participating in activities or hobbies they enjoy.  Additionally, practicing relaxation to relieve muscle tension is extremely effective and can be practiced quickly and easily if sufficiently learned. Practice by tensing your fists for 5 seconds, then release the tension completely. Say to yourself, "relax". Notice that your hand is now MORE relaxed than before the tension. Practice this method moving all throughout the body.  This is called Progressive Muscle Relaxation and I'm sure you can find a full script somewhere on the web. Other forms of relaxation may include yoga or other exercise, meditation, visualization, prayer or other spiritual practice or communion, talking to a friend or loved one, seeking profession help through therapy or medication, and so on.  If you find that your stress is a little more permanent that just every day experiences, then you may consider relocating to a city with a slower pace or changing to a job that will be less stressful.  Examine your life and see where your stress is coming from and then slowly you can find creative ways of eliminating or decreasing the stress as a whole. Good Luck and don't forget the powerful connection of Mind and Body!!
