When stress gets built up, it just isn't somewhere you want to be. I bet your wishing that you could find a way to be stress free. There is no way to become completely stress free but you can do things that will make you come close. Some stress can be good but if you get to much of it, it will take you downhill.
If your starting to feel very stressed out, remember to tell yourself to relax. We need to take a few minutes a day to relax. However you like to relax, by laying on the couch letting your mind drift off or maybe simply by listening to music that is easy to listen to.
We can be so busy with our lives sometimes but you must find time to do what you want to do each day. If it is only a half an hour, take it. You need time for yourself, maybe you like to go fishing or play golf, whatever you like to do you must do it. If you can't have a little bit of fun, your life will build up stress.
Put yourself around people who will make you laugh. By laughing more throughout the day, this will make you less stressful and will make you happier. Did you know laughing a lot can even burn calories? That is pretty neat if you think about it!
Take time and put some exercise into your day. Exercising releases a hormone which will make you happy, taking the stress away. It will also make you healthier to exercise each day. By living a healthy lifestyle, it will put you closer to becoming stress free.
By doing these little things to help relieve stress, it will put you on the road to becoming stress free. Next time you feel stressed out, tell yourself to relax and chill out!

Fast Stress Relief
1. Take a walk. Walking is one of the best stress relief techniques if you have at least ten minutes. It is even better if you can find a pretty place to walk.
2. Laugh at something. Experience shows that this helps you relax, right? Find the person who knows all the best jokes, or look for something funny in front of you.
3. Get out of the room for a while. Sometimes the things in the room or related to the room are triggering your stressful thoughts. Try getting out for a little while.
4. Have a cup of chamomile tea. Chamomile seems to have a calming effect on the nerves, although any hot tea without caffeine may help relieve stress.
5. Take a hot shower. This relaxes your muscles, and any break from more stressful activities can help too. Some find that an alternating hot and cold shower is even more relaxing, but be careful with this one if you have a weak heart!
6. Interrupt you normal routines. Talk to the crazy lady in the park, or eat your lunch outside. Doing anything that breaks you out of your habitual patterns can often relieve stress.
7. Deep breathing. Try six or seven deep breaths through your nose, with your eyes closed. Pay attention only to your breathing while doing this. This is "mini-meditation," and possibly one the most effective of these stress relief techniques.
8. Give someone a hug. Of course, giving a hug means getting one, and as long as it's from somebody you don't mind hugging, this can immediately reduce your level of stress.
9. Watch your mind. Notice mental irritants lurking just below the surface and resolve them. Make the call that's on your mind, put things on a list so you can drop them, and generally let go of non-essential thoughts. Practice this mindfulness exercise, and it may become one of your favorite stress relief techniques.
10. Turn on some relaxing music. Have your favorite relaxation CDs in the car, in your office, or wherever you'll need them most.

Reduce Stress Even In Recession
At times like these it's easy to become so terribly stressed and dissatisfied. With the economy biting so hard, unemployment rate on the increase and hardship threatening to rear its ugly head.These might lead to worrying and worry to stress which will only do damage to your health. So instead of saying yes to worry and stress, why not choose to say a big 'NO' by applying these simple tips below.
Tune out the Negative.
Don't listen to bad news either on the radio, television or in the conversations of others. Keep yourself positive by remaining in a "negative free zone".
Think of Everything Good.
Go on a rampage of appreciation. Begin to notice everything good in your life and all the beauty that surrounds you. Keep noticing and appreciating everything no matter how seemingly simple-the sun shining, the flowers blooming, your favorite piece of clothing. As your attention and mood shift to good things, so will your outcomes.
Shift your Energy.
Use any technique that moves you from feeling negative to feeling positive such as meditation, uplifting music, candles, hot bath, sitting quietly, talking with friends or helping others. Your goal is to feel better by improving your mood. Even a small incremental move forward is a huge step.
Regain Trust.
Remind yourself that you create your own reality and are not governed by anything but your thoughts. Think about other times when you were uncertain or scared but things managed to work out. Remind yourself that things will work out again and trust that it will happen.
Take extra good care of yourself.
Practice extreme self-care. Try eating better, sleeping more, and exercising. Spend a day doing something you absolutely enjoy. Laugh!
Focus on what You Want.
Instead of thinking about everything that you don't want, focus your intention on what you do want. Hint-if you are worrying you are focused on what you don't want regardless of the words you are thinking or saying.
Make a habit of practicing each of these tips daily, and suddenly you'll find that your circumstances will improve.
