Top Ways to Lower Daily Stress

By Genevieve Cunningham

Stress is a well known aspect of everyone's life. We can't make it through life without some degree of stress from multiple different angles. When we're young, the stress may come from school, friends, or various activities. As we get older, our stress comes from work, finances, and various obligations. It seemingly never ends. But learning to manage and lower stress is a crucial part of living a healthy life. Where can we begin? If you're ready to commit to lower stress, take a look at these tips to help you get started. 

Why Worry About It?

You may be under the impression that there's really not much you can do about stress, so why worry about it? But excessive stress has a great impact on your health. It can make you feel depressed, exhausted, and negative about life. It can cause aches and pains, headaches, tension in the spine, and can even raise the risk of illness. If we can learn to manage our stress, we can mitigate these risks and improve health overall. 

Ideas for Less Stress

  • Prioritize - One of the most important things you can do to lessen stress is to prioritize. What has to be done? What can wait? If you focus on what needs to be done, you'll have less on your schedule, more time to get things done, and much less stress as a whole. 

  • Move - Movement is good for both body and mind. When you move the body, you carry around less mental and emotional stress. Choose an activity and participate on a regular basis. You may be surprised at just how much exercise can lower stress. 

  • Listen - You have to listen to your own body and mind. If you haven't been doing this already, it will take some practice. But your body will give you clues about when enough is enough. Headaches, insomnia, general pain -- your body needs a break! Learn to listen, and you can nip stress in the bud before it grows.

Stress is hard on the body and the mind. It can ruin our health without us even realizing. If you want to feel your best, lowering stress is crucial! Use these tips to lower your daily stress, and you'll start feeling better in your daily life in seemingly no time at all.
