2 Simple Ways to Cope with Stress

Ask yourself every day: “How am I feeling?”

Then, name it. Not just, “I feel uncomfortable”. 

“Where do I feel it in my body? I feel a tightness in my chest”. 

This can be helpful, especially for people who have difficulty expressing their feelings.

If you feel extremely stressed or angry, you might find the above exercise difficult.

The best way to expend some of this excess stress is to engage in cardiovascular exercise, such as running or walking briskly.

Aim for at least fifteen to twenty minutes until you are slightly out of breath, to expend some stress hormones.

Since we each have different cardiovascular capacity, we’ll differ in terms of how much and what kind of exercise we need.

Loving you, Angelos.
