We have spoken about how to relieve stress in our previous post. We explained some of the qualities you need to instill in yourself so that you can live a perfectly stress free live. In this post we will give you several more tips on how to achieve a stress-free state of being. The best way to relieve stress is to prevent it before it ever develops. There are a few daily routines that you will have to start  to prevent stressful situations. You cannot do anything about the factors  that may cause stress. but you can relieve it by using these methods.

1) This is the most prominent and useful tip anyone can give you. Even you know its importance. Get a good night’s sleep. It is recommended that you get at least 8 hours of sleep. We know that work is important and many other factors result in you getting less hours of sleep. But try to remember that by denying your body much needed rest, you are actually killing it slowly.


2) We are emotional beings. Emotions are beautiful things which make us feel truly human. But they run the risk of making us vulnerable to many things.Everyone should think rationally and objectively.Emotions should not go beyond our control.


3) Planning and task management is the key to a stress free work place condition. Plan your day and deal accordingly with the situations but also take breathers for 10- 15 minutes between exhaustive tasks.


4) We pride ourselves on our multi-tasking abilities. But we tend to bite more than we can chew. Everyone should pace themselves. Push yourself but not in such a way that can harm you. Relax. Concentrate on the job at hand. When undivided attention is given to one thing at a time, you are bound to do a good job at it.


6) Taking a walk sometimes is a very good reliever of stress. It can provide exercise as well as calm your mind. Walk in areas which are rarely crowded and where you can experience peace.


7)Nature is the best healer. Take a few days off and go to see nature at its best. It will have a calming effect on you and it is scientifically proven that beautiful scenery and fresh air soothes the nerves.


8) Confront your problems by talking about them with the relevant people. Failure to do this increases bitterness which may stress you and many people out.


9) Listen to music.  Music is highly therapeutic and is very likely to drive stress away because of its property of distracting people from their current state and helping them to imagine a better place and situation.

10) Do not take life so seriously, laugh sometime.Another way to relieve stress is to talk to someone about your problems. It could be a family member, friend or health care professional who will give you the emotional support you need to reduce stress.
