How to Reduce Stress

As the present age is full of commitments, hectic routines and tight schedules, we have to face the Stress somehow at some point of time during out life span. Our life is becoming so fast and comprising with so many things at a time it creates Stress on us while failing to meet some of these things or commitments or goals whatever you may call. To remove the stress at all seems quite difficult at first glance but if can manage the things with smart and logical work schedules we can get relief to some extent

The tactics that may help to reduce stress are outlined as under:

When you are going to prepare a work schedule for a specific timeframe keep in mind the fact that the entire slot of 24 hours a day comprises three basic categories. The first slot is the sleeping hours, which generally occupy 7 to 9 hours a day this is the most important time slot because it relates to the rest of our body and what we do during the rest of the day depends on this. Second, the hours for breakfast, lunch, dinner and nature's call which covers 1 to 2 hours depends on our physical status and the requirements of our body, this slot is also vital as it directly relates to our health and physical existence; and the most important third one is activity hours, which covers 7 to 12 or sometimes more than 12. The overlapping of these three partitions within each other may create stress in our mind so carefully partition the hours for these three categories as per our basic requirements.

Do not make too many commitments to others that seems unrealistic and beyond your capacity to fulfil. Because when some of our commitments are not fulfilled it creates some stress on our mind. So be careful while making commitments to others.

Life is not for work and commitments only. There has to keep spare time in your entire day schedule for family and other social obligations.

Funny and light moments during the activity may make the stress light and keep you constantly energetic towards the work. So catch a funny and light moment during your activity time as and when time allowed.

Develop a habit to say clear NO to future commitments when their fulfilment is unrealistic and beyond your reach. Here No means clearer No without any excuse or scope.

Identify your strengths and weaknesses concerning your routine work and responsibilities and depute that specific tasks to others, if possible, in which you seem weaknesses to perform at your side. Because a long time performing tasks where you are weak to do so will create some sort of stress in your mind.

Keep in touch with nature and surrounding greeneries at least once a day this will help to revitalize your mind greatly.

Never think that the world will collapse if some urgent commitments cannot be fulfilled in time. Reschedule some important portions of the work for the next day if time permits.

Do not take important decisions and make commitments when you are in a tense state because decisions and commitments in tense situations will create more stress for you.

A morning walk before sunrise not only energizes your body but also helps to prepare the tentative schedule in mind for the entire day with a fresh mood.

Spend at least a few minutes among Nature. Studies and Research have shown that when you spend your time with Nature so many of your body complications may resolve automatically.

Wake up early morning before sunrise and stand up in the direction of sunrise just before the moments of sunrise and see how the Sun rises slowly while chanting Gayatri Mantra in the mind till the Sun completely rises out. This will help to re-energize you entirely.
