5 Stress-Busters: Counteract the Harmful Effects of Stress
Stress - whether it's from the hectic pace of your daily routine
or a traumatic life event - can take its toll on your body.
Prolonged stress can compromise your immune system, making you
more vulnerable to serious illness and infection. If you stress
is related to your lifestyle, it might be time to re-evaluate
your priorities and slow down a bit. If life has thrown you a
curveball, such as the breakup of your marriage or the loss of
your job, you may have to ride it out. But, regardless of what's
causing your stress, it's important to do what you can to
counteract its harmful effects. Here are five ideas to get you
started:
1. Change your perspective: You may or may not have control over
the source of your stress, but you can control the way you
perceive it. If you're on the verge of a meltdown because you're
facing an impossible deadline, for example, ask yourself if the
Earth will stop spinning on its axis if you're a day late. If
you're dealing with a marital separation, acknowledge the pain
and sadness, but internalize the knowledge that those feelings
will lessen over time. Sometimes a change of perspective frees
you to ask for that deadline extension or to feel your sadness
but move on through your day.
2. Get moving: Exercise releases endorphins, which are
neurotransmitters that act as a natural mood-elevator. If that's
not enough to give you a boost, setting aside time each day for
exercise will help strengthen your body to more effectively
fight off stress-induced illness. Be sure to make your exercise
goals achievable, or you'll run the risk of adding to
your
stress!
3. Take a time out: Schedule a period of time each day for your
personal "time out." Whether it's 15 minutes or an hour, block
the time on your calendar as you would an appointment or
meeting. Keeping your appointment with yourself must be
non-negotiable, and don't dare use your time out to catch up on
household chores or read your business report. Spend the time in
meditation, read a trashy novel, or create a flower arrangement
- whatever will make you feel as though you've put yourself
first.
4. Nurture your body: Set aside at least one hour a week to
pamper your body. Get a manicure or a pedicure, or spend an hour
soaking in a bubble bath. At least once a month, consider having
some bodywork done, such as a massage, an exfoliation, or other
spa treatment. Not only will you be able to soothe away your
stress, but you'll also let your body know that you appreciate
all it does for you.
5. Reach out: Stress builds in isolation, so reach out to family
members and friends. You don't necessarily have to share what's
stressing you out - you just need to connect. Knowing that you
have a solid support system in place can get you through the
most stressful times.
