It makes you feel good.<\/p> When you have a real chemical change in your blood stream, stress will be harder to kick in and bring you down.<\/p> Also, when you are doing these high-intensity exercises, you tend to shift your focus into the moment and thus think less about those stressful situations. You’re transforming your aggressions into different forms of energy and this can lower your levels of stress significantly.<\/p> #2 Take Imperfect Action On The Things You’ve Been Procrastinating On <\/strong><\/p> When you choose to proactively engage with the tough situations you’ve been avoiding, you’ll become less stressed over time because it’s often the imagination of the situation rather than the situation itself that stresses people out.<\/p> By “eating the frog” and doing the hardest work early in your workday, you’ll free yourself up the anxiety, fear, and over-thinking that pop up throughout the day.<\/p> #3 Spend Private Time With Yourself Daily <\/strong><\/p> Solitude grounds you.<\/p> When you spend some quiet time (maybe just 20-30 minutes) each day just for yourself instead of entertaining others and the world, you will give yourself a window of opportunity to relax and clear your mind.<\/p> It can be as formal as quiet meditation, but it can be as casual as sitting in your room and journaling what you had accomplished, won and learnt in the day.<\/p> Stress is going to bombard you no matter what. The key is to accept them and find ways to transform these energies into productive motivations so you continue dominate your mission and keep hustling.<\/p> Make progress consistently and happiness will ensue.<\/p>\t\t\t Do you feel stressful right now?Are you constantly worrying about the future?Have you caught yourself thinking about the negative future potential consequences of the things you currently do?The truth is that stress is an inevitable part of life.While it sounds good in theory that we could eliminate stress altogether and be carefree for the rest … Continue reading 3 Best Things You Should Do When You Are Stressed Out<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":105815,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-105814","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-anxiety"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/soccer-673599_150-40.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105814","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=105814"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105814\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":107997,"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105814\/revisions\/107997"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/105815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=105814"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=105814"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/effectsofanxiety.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=105814"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
