Depends whats it for like what topics causing u stress,theres a couple of things that work

1. Drink cold water n close ur eyes n think of me ;p joke think of an iceburg in the sea that usualy calms me its a natural coolant u see its like wen ur hot n u have a mind set of thinking cold ul b able to stay cool I. The heat also the tip of the iceburg is u anythin below it shows how big it is and suggests there are others in worser situation now think with a cool head.

2.stress causes toxins to b produced in the body n the best way to get rid of that is thru sweat so go for a run jog walkor gum n flex those muscles sweat it out this will refresh ir body and mindand again cool u down to think more clearly and giving u fresh ideas.

3.once kooled down and are thinking with a calm head write whats stressing u then write a plan on how to tackle it. Writing n jotting things down keeps u organised n helps u see the fuller picture more clearly lol n thru the plan work it out and having a laff xx

Thses are few steps anyway everyone is different so some ppl imagine montains or trees greenry memroable places and different colours.they say the colour green of a plant the natual green of a plant is soothing n calming
Hope this helps sorry for the essay. Xx

Yes, everyone is different, which is why I asked what they do to handle stress. I was just curious, not looking for advice. :smile:

There's not much that can stress me out, but if i do get a little stressed i usually put my headphones on and listen to some relaxing music, usually mike oldfields "songs of the distant earth".

Grab a can of beer n sped off to a friend to get my mind diverted from the cause of stress or play Xbox. It often helps. I tried meditation, but its difficult for me. One needs to patient

I go onto forums and pick angry debates with people that I deem intelligent. It always makes me laugh when either the people I'm debating with or myself gets flustered and posts something stupid and it makes me forget what I was stressed about.

Aromatherapy bath with soothing music. Close my eyes while in the bath repeating a positive affirmation in my mind until all other thoughts are quiet. Then, I use breathing exercises to calm myself more and try to visualize myself in a place that comforts me (near the ocean, in the woods with nature, etc) to help quiet my mind completely. Though, I ask for help from my higher power. Takes practice!

I mingle.
Seriously.
When you see everyone else's problems
it makes your own simply disappear.
If they make me laugh=no more stress :-)
