How do you handle stress?Got a "happy place?What's your method?

There are many methods of reducing and dealing with stress. But one thing many people overlook is that breathing can play a vital role in handling stress. If proper amount of oxygen does not reach our brains, out thinking becomes fuzzy and not as clear as when we get proper supply of oxygen through correct breathing. Here is a small article which shows how to breathe properly: http://snipurl.com/1ar7p Hope you find it useful.

I do not find a happy place per say, when I am frustrated, I try to get around my kids, they make me realize that no matter what is going on, there are more inportant things in life. They also make me happy and calms my nerves.

I relieve my stress by either travelling and seeing sights (even if it would just be thirty minutes to an hour) or walk at night.. I love to observe the streets, the people, whether is a busy place or a very quiet place. I visit a friend, tell him that Im not feeling good, (though sometimes I do not feel the need to tell him why).. he will treat me an ice cream, which I like the most... walk a few block talking to each other and back... when were done with a little chit chat, im recharged. =)

my favorite method to deal with stress is to do something that i really enjoy so i can get my mind off things. like reading a book, playing a game, watching a movie or something. just something that will make me forget about problems.
