Helpful Tips for Managing Stress



Physical activity and fitness....
Studies show a correlation between mental health and fitness. Not only is it good for you body but it is good for your brain.

Sleep... Adequate sleep is crucial for daily function, on average you need 7-9 hours of sleep. Lack of sleep can cause you to become anxious and tense which adds to your stress.

Mediation... Studies are showing this is one of the best ways to deal with stress. It is described as bringing your attention to the external and internal experiences happening in the present moment.

Time Management.... Be productive, if you are keeping busy your mind is also busy, we don't have time to dwell on our problems.

Lastly; Natural Remedies; If you don't feel like it's bad enough to seek medical attention then don't. Ancient Greeks used chamomile tea which is proven to help. There are now essential oils that you can use on your body or through a diffuser. Also Vitamin D, B12, Magnesium and St. Johns Wort can help. If you decide to use any of those please check if there could be a reaction with your prescription medicine!

I have anxiety and I am bipolar. I know a lot and have done a lot of research over the last 20 years I try to stay up to date on new things to try.
