Alternative Ways to Reduce Stress

Write It Down

Keep track of events when you get stressed out. According to HelpGuide.org, this can help you figure out what causes your stress and how to deal with it, while also giving you a healthy outlet to express your frustrations. After you’ve been writing for a while, you may begin to see patterns. These patterns will give you a better grasp on your individual stressors and the ways to handle them in a healthy way. It’s important to try to remember how you felt when you were stressed, how you acted and what you can do better next time.
