Stress can sneak into your life and turn it upside down. It can wreck your career , health or your relationships. Stress is a major problem of many people, a hectic schedule , stressful jobs, a chaotic home life, bills to worry about, and bad habits such as unhealthy eating , drinking and smoking can lead to a mountain of stress.

Here are some ways to overcome some stress just pick and choose the ones that will work best for you and give them a try.

Onething at a time.

Focus as much as possible on doing one thing at a time.

Simplify your schedule

Hectic schedule is a major cause of stress. Simplify by reducing the number of commitments in your life to just the essential ones.

Get moving

Do something each day to be active – walk , hike , play a sport, go for a run , do yoga, it doesn't have to be grueling to reduce stress.

Develop one healthy habit this month

Other than getting active, improving your health overall will help with the stress.

Do something calming

What do you enjoy that calms down? For many people, it can be the “get moving” activity discussed above. But it could also be taking a nap, or a bath, or reading, or having sex (which can also be considered a “get moving” activity if you do it for longer than 5 minutes). Other people are calmed by housework or yard work. Some people like to meditate, or take a nature walk. Find your calming activity and try to do it each day.

Simplify your finances.

Finances can be a drain on your energy and a major stressor. If that’s true with you, figure out ways to simplify things. Automate savings and bill payments and debt payments.

Havea blast

Have fun each day, even if it’s just for a few minutes.

Get creative.

Throwing yourself into a creative activity is another great way to de-stress and to

prevent stress.

Declutter

This is a favorite of mine. I like to take 20-30 minutes and just go through a room, getting rid of stuff we don’t use or need anymore.

Be early.

Being late can be very stressful. Try to leave earlier by getting ready earlier, or by scheduling more space between events.
