Tips to Manage Anxiety and Stress

Coping Strategies
Try these when you're feeling anxious or stressed:

Take a time-out:
Practice yoga, listen to music, meditate, get a massage, or learn relaxation techniques. Stepping back from the problem helps clear your head.

Eat well-balanced meals.
Do not skip any meals. Do keep healthful, energy-boosting snacks on hand.

Limit alcohol and caffeine:
which can aggravate anxiety and trigger panic attacks.

Get enough sleep:
When stressed, your body needs additional sleep and rest.

Exercise daily :
Help you feel good and maintain your health. Check out the fitness tips below.

Take deep breaths:
Inhale and exhale slowly.
Count to 10 slowly. Repeat, and count to 20 if necessary.

Do your best:
Instead of aiming for perfection, which isn't possible, be proud of however close you get.

Accept that you cannot control everything:
Put your stress in perspective: Is it really as bad as you think?

Welcome humor:
A good laugh goes a long way.

Maintain a positive attitude:
Make an effort to replace negative thoughts with positive ones.

Get involved:
Volunteer or find another way to be active in your community, which creates a support network and gives you a break from everyday stress.

Learn what triggers your anxiety:
Is it work, family, school, or something else you can identify? Write in a journal when you’re feeling stressed or anxious, and look for a pattern.

Talk to someone:
Tell friends and family you’re feeling overwhelmed, and let them know how they can help you. Talk to a physician or therapist for professional help.
