We each have different needs and different ways of coping. Acknowledging our feelings helps us recover. Talking with someone about our feelings of anger, sorrow, and other emotions, even though it may be difficult, is a step to promote our own physical and emotional healing, by using existing support from family, friends, and church.

Each one has his/her own way of dealing with stress. I adopt my own style to deal with stress. In fact, Spa treatments work best for me.

thumbs up

I agree, try to find your own unique, quirky way of dealing with stress. One thing I do is re-arrange my itunes folder and my computer files. I feel like I went to a spa afterwards

I find it works best for me to find out what triggers my stress and try to avoid it! If I can't do this I find a relaxing meeting with friends helps me to de-stress.

I like to go for a body building session to help me work out my stress from my body- it really does help me unwind and relax.

I find a bit of meditation is great at reducing my stress levels and is great for mind, body and soul.

I agree that everyone has its own style in dealing with stress. Playing with my daughter after a long hard work makes me feel better, happy and relax, this is my own way in dealing with stress.

Taking a look walk around the neighborhood helps me deal with stress because it relaxes me and looking at the different people I encounter helps get my mind off things

I like the fact that everyone encouraged things that would potentially help outside of various therapeutic modality (i.e. - the "magic pill"). One thing, however, you must consider is your overt stress sources.

The term "stress" takes on different meaning to everyone. What may stress one person, may seem like a walk in the park for the next. It is that consideration that needs some sort of uncovering to see whether or not stress cannot be managed with mere behavioral modification.

Hormonal profiles should be undertaken every 3-5 years (and I am talking extreme full-spectrum panels) beyond the age of about 25 yrs. old when hormones begin their relative declination. It is only then that you have established a true baseline and any deviation from that point will aid you into contemporarily controlling internal affairs to reflect outside status.

Some of the overt signs of decline come in the following forms:

(1) poor sleep
(2) general body aches
(3) short-term memory decline
(4) concentration difficulty
(5) word finding disorder / word substitution ("tip of the tongue" phenomenon with potential pathologic basis)
(6) orientation complexities
(7) increased thirst
(8) bowel disorders
(9) recurrent infections
(10)exhaustion with minimal exertion

and the list goes on...

But you really should come to a general consensus as to why you are having suggested symptoms. Uncovering the rationale may lead to a hugely imperative quality of life increase. Oftentimes, it is easy to suggest making behavioral changes to ammend it, but does this actually alleviate the problem at hand or minimally cover it up? I actually don't have the answer to this question - but am merely pontificating here.

I deal stress by going to spa and have a full body massage to ease out the stress form work. Once I come home from work I always ligt up a scented candle and I sit and close my eys and think that im in a paradise or a beach to ease out the stress.

In releiving stress its best to talk. Talk to your closest friend or buddy and let out what is stressing you about work or family.

If you just take for granted of your stress it could give you frequent headaches. Feeling anxious and panicking without any cauise are also felt of too much stress.

When I feel stressed I do some deep breathing and consult my friends.

Except from deep breathing exercise, what are other alternative ways to deal with stress?

Walking or working out tends to relieve stress. If you are concerned about your stress level you may want to consult a physician.

You can also do yoga and have a aromatherapy massage. Aromatherapy massage has already been proven to remove stress.

There are many ways to relieve stress, like watching movies or just listening to your favorite singer. The secret is you have to be relaxed and do not think of things that will overly stress you out.
