How to Avoid Stress

 How to Avoid Stress 


Life is a very stressful thing. The critical thing to remember, however, is that even when we are extremely stressed, there are always things that can be done to calm us down, to make us feel better, to remove the stress from our lives, or even avoid it altogether. Plus, we must all remember that some stress is perfectly normal – we wouldn’t be able to appreciate the good times in life if it weren’t for the struggles we sometimes have to go through. 


The problem is that, although some stress is good for us (it keeps us alert to danger as well as making us grateful), too much stress can be bad for our health, and dangerously so; this includes both physical and mental health. With that in mind, trying to avoid stress where you can should be a priority. Read on to find out how to do it. 


Solve the Problems 

You might not know why you are feeling stressed; sometimes, you will just feel uneasy. However, most of the time, those feelings will have a definite reason behind them. It might be that you are overwhelmed at work or that you are having problems in your marriage. Maybe your health is a problem. Perhaps you’re worried about your finances. It could be any of these things, all of them, or something else entirely. 


The best thing to do when you are feeling stressed is to determine just what it is that is causing the problem and solve it. If your job makes you stressed, start looking for a new one or let your boss know you can’t do what they are asking of you. If it is your marriage, then you’ll need to speak to your partner and either try again or contact divorce solicitors in Lichfield. If it is your money, again you can look at your job or work out a way to spend less. No matter what, there will be a solution, and if you want to be less stressed, you’ll need to find it. 


Relax More 

It isn’t always possible to avoid the things that make us stressed, especially when we’re not entirely sure what those things are, or the solution to the problem will take some time. However, by relaxing more, we can certainly help ourselves deal with that stress better and potentially save ourselves a lot of pain. 


Just 10 minutes of relaxation a day (although more is better) can be enough to lower our blood pressure, ease our minds, and help us to get through the issues that would otherwise have made us feel terrible. Some of the things we can do to ensure we are more relaxed include: 


  • Massage

  • Yoga

  • Sports

  • Reading

  • Listening to music

  • Watching a favorite TV show

  • Speaking to friends

  • Having a warm, bubbly bath

  • Going for a walk 


Get Organized 

Lots of different things trigger stress, but one thing that can help in any situation is getting more organized. By getting yourself in a routine and sticking to it, you can ground yourself – you know where you are meant to be and when, and ensuring that you are following your routine at all times will enable your mind to stay a little more still and a little calmer. 


Plus, being more organized is a good way to reduce stress in general. You might not notice it, but subconsciously a clutter-filled house can be very stressful indeed and add to your worries. So tidy and organize yourself, and you’ll immediately feel better.

Dry Idea: Deodorant Review and Giveaway

I know most of you know I was at kids camp last week and I think I mentioned the humidity and heat that we had that week!  I was daring as I only brought my new Dry Idea  deodorant  that I had never used prior.  I had no idea if it was going to keep me from smelling like B.O or if I was going to have sweaty pits. So how did the Dry Idea hold up to the hot and humid days at kids camp???  Arms raised high during worship in the morning and in the evening!  :)  I was dry and I did not stink!  :) WOOT WOOT!  I had the unscented brand and I usually do prefer a pretty scent but it worked and they do have scents which include powder fresh and cotton dry that I might try in the future.  :) The Dry Idea Roll-On is 24 hour protection, fast drying MicroCotton Formula, hypo allergenic, and contains Vitamin E.  :) Don't like roll on's??  They do offer Clear Gel and an Invisible Solid.  :) Dry Idea provided a free sample of their Advanced Dry roll-On so I could review them.  However,
