Answer 3

Breathing..seriously it helps me out when I am angry or mad or nervous. Breath in thru your nose and hold five seconds breath out thru your mouth for 5 seconds and continue till you feel relaxed.

Analyze the situation in which is making you stress and see really why you are, is there really a reason to get that worked up, feel it out and talk yourself into a calmer state

Kudos to you for actually acknowledging your high stress level. Many people experience constant (and often overwhelming) stress, but simply dismiss it as an unavoidable part of life.

First of all, it might help to understand that stress is actually your body’s chemical response to an event or situation that you see (on some level) as threatening. You may have heard of the “fight or flight” response. What this means is that when you perceive a threat, your sympathetic nervous system releases stress hormones. These hormones arouse key organs, resulting in increased heart and respiratory rate, greater muscle tension, and coldness and sweatiness, among other things. This is helpful if you need to fight or run, but not so useful for the common stressors in today’s life!

In fact, a persistent, prolonged stress response may lead to a variety of adverse physical and mental health problems, including the “biggies” like high blood pressure, heart irregularities, suppressed immune system and psychological dysfunction.

So stress can make you sick. But we have more control over this than you might realize, because we can change our response to life’s stressors. In short, you have the ability to not only manage, but master your stress.

To begin, try to identify your sources of stress. Is it a challenging commute, a needy coworker, or a nagging financial concern? Are there stressors you can actually change or eliminate?

Then think about how you experience stress. How much of your reaction is unconscious and reflexive? How much is thoughtful and intentional? Do you experience backaches, irritability, or head pain? Do you listen to the signals your body is giving you?

Once you’ve identified your major stressors and your recurring reactions to them, you can more easily take charge of these challenges with intentional responses, and prevent or decrease a stress reaction by applying some simple stress mastery tips (there are lots more):

Practice meditation or other type of quiet reflection

Check out breathing techniques, which allow you to slow your heart rate and lower your blood pressure

Use imagery to “picture” relaxing and healing scenarios

Adjust your attitude to eliminate a negative or defeatist mindset

Stop judging yourself and others. Judgment commonly leads to conflict—internal and external.

Try yoga, Tai Chi, and Qigong

Engage in expressive therapies such as art, music, or dance

Talk with people you trust and ask for help when you need it

See a counselor or attend group support sessions

Choose not to worry about things you cannot control

Have fun through sports, hobbies, or social activities

Now breathe in, breathe out, and embark on your stress mastery campaign!

Answer 9

It sounds corny but deep breathes help a lot- when oxygen is flowing correctly to your brain, you're able to focus better and nerves go away. Keep yourself collected with calming or happy thoughts- think of favorite vacations or spending time with someone you really like and how comfortable you feel around them. Even just thinking about it can put you at ease instantly! When you're taking a test, don't think about the stressful things like the grade or how much time is left- focus on the information you know first and work on questions you're fuzzy on afterwards. Remind yourself that you've done your best and thats all anyone can ask of you, so the grade doesn't matter as long as you put your best foot forward. When you take it from that perspective, its not so bad. And make sure you have outlets for stress everyday, like writing your thoughts in a journal, going for a walk or just taking a bubblebath- anything that relaxes you. Good luck!
