Other Ways to Manage Stress

Stress can wreak havoc on your body. It can lead to deteriorating relationships, depression and more. It can rob you of the happiness God intended you to have.

We will always have some form of stress the longer we live but the good news is we can overcome stress by applying a few changes to our lives.

First: I would sit down, think about your life, and write down whatever is causing you to be stressed.

Second: I would take it to The Lord in prayer and ask Our Father to provide you with guidance and help you change what you can change.

Third: Look at your diet. Eat right to get the proper nutrition but don’t deprive yourself completely.

Fourth: Exercise, even if it is just for a walk or Yoga. You can find classes online or at your local community center.

Fifth: Turn it off. Take a break from TV and turn off your cell phone, the news, and anything else that brings you down.

Sixth: Get your rest. Put up some black out curtains to help you sleep better.

Seventh: Pamper yourself with a nice massage or bubble bath.

Eight: Smile. It can do wonders for you.

Ninth: Have Faith, don't give up.
