➡️Try to get rid of your stressors.

Keep a journal to identify the situations that create stress for you. While it's not always possible, evaluate whether you can get rid of or avoid the situation. This may mean asking for help or giving up some responsibilities or lowering your expectations at work, home, or school.

➡️Take care of your body.

This includes eating a healthy and varied diet, getting quality sleep, exercising regularly, and avoiding excessive alcohol, caffeine, tobacco, or other substances. Taking steps to care for your physical health can help improve your immune system to fight stressors and decrease inflammation caused by stress.

➡️Create a routine.

Having regularity and routine, such as waking up, eating meals, and going to bed at the same time each day, can help you feel more stability in your life, which can help reduce stress and anxiety. If that's not possible due to your work or family responsibilities, finding ways to add routine into your day, such as a bedtime routine, can also support your well-being.

➡️Enjoy leisure activities.

Many people feel like they have too many responsibilities to be able to take the time for leisure activities. However, cutting out leisure activities may actually be counterproductive when it comes to your well-being. Doing things you enjoy, such as going for a walk, reading a book, listening to music or a podcast, or watching your favorite TV show, can help to alleviate stress and anxiety and allow you to reset and recharge.

➡️Get outside.

Many studies have shown that green spaces, such as parks, can help boost mood and help you recover more quickly from stressors. Try to take a walk and observe nature around you to help reduce your stress.

➡️Take breaks from media.

Constantly consuming bad news through traditional or social media can be upsetting and traumatic. Consider reducing the amount of time you spend scrolling and looking at screens.

➡️Stay connected.

Talking to friends and family can help you feel supported when you are stressed. Offering support to friends and family can also be a way to boost your own well-being.
