Ways to relieve stress

Hey guys...

I see some of you are really stressed because of the exam...

well don't  get too fed up because here is some good tips from the net...

Use deep breathing - breathe in through your nose down to your stomach, hold your breath, and breathe out through your mouth.

Get aerobic exercise daily.

Take a walk, even a very short one when you’'re upset.

Practice yoga or tai chi or progressive relaxation.

Enjoy the soothing aspects of water -– swim or take a bath or a shower.

Make time to talk to friends and family members.

Pet and play with an animal.

Listen to or play uplifting music.

Read an inspiring book, sing a song, recite a poem.

Spend time in nature.

Avoid black and white thinking –- few things in life are hopeless.

Choose positive thoughts -– paste them on your mirror.

Restrict your viewing of upsetting media.

Pick your battles –- you can'’t solve every problem.

Write down your goals and strategies for reaching them.

Spend quiet time to get back in touch with yourself.

Hope it helps!
