How do you fight your daily stress?

I do it by listening to music, relaxing and lying down for a few minutes and just having a nice conversation with people that I like. I dislike thinking about negativity and prefer to surround myself with positivity. That is more worthwhile than anything at all.

Every morning the first thing I do on getting up is to meditate, to still the mind and set me up for the day. Stress is a part of life and sometimes necessary, but negative stress, like worrying about things you cannot do anything about, can be handled very well with meditation. I have a link on my profile that explains more about meditation. - Derek

Well, singing loudly is a good way to release stress. But as to me, I think talking to the mirror is a better way. Every time I feel sad or annoyed, I'll talk to the mirror because not everything you can talk to parents or friends. And talk to the mirror is talk to yourself. When I talk to the mirror, I feel released. And I think you can have a try.

I just try to think about the fact that someone might have it worse than me and I can't get more than I can handle. Writing helps me through stress a lot. I try to write about the good things that are going on in my life and just think back on things that used to make me happy.

me and my girlfriend see each other almost everyday. the only days I am not with her is if she's with one of her friends. we have never fought up until now and it's ruining our relationship. when I visit my parents without her, she gets angry and sad. she says its because I'm ditching her.I try to understand her position but I see her so much I didn't think it would matter if I didn't see her for a day or two. it seems like she getting mad at me for everything and it makes us both so stressed. I am not sure if my whole family really likes her very much and thats really stressful too. we can't stop fighting.

I will listen to music and buy some foodsto eat.The foods will make me fight my daily stress.I love to eat snakes,in fact, the best way to ralease stress is to doo what most like to do normal things,so as to release pressure and better.

Yes we do live in a stressful life .Everyday we are tensed in some way or the either at home or regarding our parents or husband or children.I try to relax by meeting friends and chatting with them or listening to music ot doing some embroidery or admiring the flowers in garden or every decorating the house.

I work in a setting with a high burnout rate so stress is something I have to deal with everyday. My significant other can also exert a lot of stress on me at times. The things that I do to relieve stress are: take a hot shower with Johnson and Johnson Melt Away Stress body wash,(whether this really works or not may all be in my head), take deep breaths when I feel that things are getting a little heated, work out whenever I get the opportunity, and eat more fruits in my diet. i feel that all of these are great ways to help me relieve my stress and would work for others as well.

Personally, I would listen to some music, watch some comedies or play online games with some of my friends. I enjoy being alone and I don't like to hang out with those so called friends.

hi, to overcome daily stress we be on doing our regular job everyone use some or other.some like to listen to music,some are good with meditation and other process.Some like to be with friends either chating or sharing everything.Pets and children also a good way for us to beat the stress.A Lovable environment in the family and work place can never give stress.So creating such environment where ever we are gives us as well as the people with us all day, all time a new refreshment and free out of stress .

As with anything in life - stress can overcome us. At work I tend to get up from my desk and walk away to clear my head. If this can not be done at the time of the stress I think of ways that the stress could be reduced. What can I do to make the situation less stressful. Same at home. I used to take med's. but they just made me feet indifferent to everything. No emotion at all. So, the best advice I have here it Act, React or do Nothing. Those are the three choices you have with anything you do. Learn to master them and you can reduce your stress three fold.

Talking to someone,listening light music,reading novels,walking,eating..... But I prefer talking to someone,which makes me feel easy really. I am not that kind people who like to hide oneself's feelings,when I have dissatisfaction I will talk to the person who is relevant. I think that maybe someone else can help me to find other ways to solve the problems~

I read adventure books as a way to relax. It always nice to think what it would be like to fight a dragon.

Its been how many months that I am consulting my doctor on what is my illness? He answers me with a smile, telling me I am healthy and just suffering stress. It's really hard to find ways to cure this illness since it is psychological. Lately I have tried to loosen up the burden, I watch movies, laugh with those jokes and of course, let all things be unto God. That's the time I have overcome the stress since I found the peace of mind I badly need

Honestly, i agree with you that stress is one of our worst enemies and I'm hoping I can find some worthwhile tips here. Most of the time, what I do is to try to ignore what is stressing me out and do whatever I want to do. The problem is that I may not readily have the resources to do what i want to do and even if i do, that may not be what i need to be doing at that time and that will make things a lot worse.

There a number of things I do to keep stress at bay. I listen to music everyday to change my mood or enhance it if already feeling good. I also try to get some excercise in every day. I'm not a lover of going to the gym, but enjoy a long walk in the middle of nature to help feel relaxed.

As a working mother, I am also invulnerable to stress.But overcoming it is a matter of attitude.After my work, I drop by to market and buy something like fruits for my kids.When I am at home, I rest for a while then prepare our dinner, feed my family then clean our kitchen and dining area.After that I'll prepare my kids in going to bed.Then a time for myself wherein I do rest by listening to music, play piano,use computer,and sometimes I play with my kids or share stories with them.In other words, overcoming daily stress is serving my family and liking the things that I do.I do enjoy doing things for my kids/family and so my stress is relieved.My family makes me happy and they are one of the reasons for me to think of a brighter future.Taking a good sleep is also a way of overcoming daily stress.I don't want to think too much on problems.I want to be positive of challenges so that I will not be much stressed. Happy mylotting!

hi careguarden, I sometimes do the things that will make me happy and forget some of my problems...haha! like shopping. I also love getting some back and foot massage. If I have some extra money I visit a spa near our place and have some "relaxation". Or I simply ask my "kind" sister to do it for me...yey! I sometimes listen to my favorite music and take some rest. I think having some sleep will make your mind in shape, so I usually would love to hit the bed and get some sleep.

Stress is part of my everyday life.As an instructor I always encounter stress every end of the day due to long hours of lectures. To overcome stress I drink plenty of water because it really tones me down. I also play with my baby he has the ability to ease my tensions.

Working life is indeed stressful, not to mention the traffic jams we get caught up everyday while commuting to and fro work. One of my favorite ways to de-stress is to play with my kids. I will piggy-back them, tickle them, or take them for a walk in the park after dinner. I also indulged myself in 1 or 2 hours' of pleasure reading before bedtime, with jazz music playing softly in the background. These activities charge me up in a sense and get me ready to face tomorrow's challenges.
