Sing! I'm totally serious. Singing along with the radio releases Dopamine and gives you a pleasurable, carefree kind of feeling, so crank it up and belt it out!

Exercise. Massage.


Take a time out! Theres a saying that goes "a change is as good as a rest!"

Clean house. Takes your mind off everything gets you active. Meditation is good. Make sure you can do it uninterrupted. Fasting really won't relieve your stress. You will feel better though. I was having problems with stress and my doctor recommened me to go to a herbalist in my local area and she recommened passiflora as it is a plant it has no side effects, and works ive recomeneded it to loads of people and they said it works for them to. Its that good its helped my mum, dad and auntie who where dealing with stress.


the best way to overcome stress, is to kill yourself and then the stress goes away for good


workout,drink or have sex or if you are lucky do all three
of course working out and sex are pretty close to the same thing if done right so that just leaves drinking !! and thats easy

Take time out during each day and write down all of your problems. Tell yourself everything good you can think of that would make you feel better. Talk about what you are feeling to friends and family. Exercise everyday. That helps with my stress. At least 30 minutes. Go to a spa every once in a while and get a massage. If you want to lose some excess energy - run it off! Use the stairs at work if possible. the time you are using to run off the energy can be used to make a list of priorities so you can keep things in order. Just keep asking yourself what needs to be done most? You'll find your way in your new job soon enough. GoodLuck


I would say - do not fast!! You need all your energy right now. If you want to try fasting, do it at a time when you don't have to go to work for a while.

Meditation is great and works for soem people.

Here is something tat works for everyone!

1. Do some exercise - something you like. It doesn't have to be hours down the gym. Even housework is a form of exercise! As you do the exercise, think of what makes you stressed. Eg, if your boss is getting you down, fantasise that you are hoovering him up!! That will help dilute the tension - because you are expressing it rather than holding it inside you.

2. After the exercise, RELAX. Give yourself time to learn this, try at least ten minutes each day, before you go to sleep. Find a safe place. Put phones onto ansaphone. Play your favourite relaxing music. Help yourself to let go of stress systematically from head to toe. Clench and release eavery muscle.

3.I know that when you don't have much time this can seem too much to do - but it really will help you to relax and concentrate better.

Please don't forget what I said about fasting - to help your concentration you need to eat good food - start with a good breakfast.

Sorry if I sound like a Mom, but I am a health professional and this really will be of help if you try it.

Good luck!


Hatha Yoga is a great stress reliever. Provides relaxation and meditation all in one! Plus it is good for your inner organs. soak in the bath a bottle of wine. and an early night.


Change the overstressful things in your life which you can change, and change your reaction to those things you can't change. Stress is part of life but sometimes it gets out of hand.
To change the overstressful things maybe list them, what it is about them that causes you problems, and what you can do in response (learn new skills, remove yourself from the situation, be more/less assertive etc etc)
To change your reaction there is only one way I know of - meditation. With practice you realise that you can in fact choose how you respond to situations and are not at their mercy
And of course, exercise, music, a little alcohol etc all help you take time out in the meantime. Good luck

get a massage.. exercise is a great stress reliever. don't underestimate the power of hanging out with friends and just being silly and forgetting about your job.


Take a xannie, work out, get a massage and relax


Take up kickboxing classes, I found it very very beneficial, you can release all your aggrevation and eases stress. Its also fun too at the same time.

The best way to deal with stress is to breath in and breath out but make it deep breaths! Also stop thinking about the things that are getting to you. Check out (http://www.reducingstress.net ) there is a lot of great articles and expert advice on the subject there.
