Indulge in Chocolate

Chocolate (dark chocolate especially) regulates the stress hormone cortisol and stabilizes your metabolism. While overindulging isn’t the best idea, we can happily recommend treating yourself quite often.

Meditate

There’s real evidence suggesting that meditating twice daily, even if it’s just for five minutes, can actually relieve depression and anxiety. Anyone can do it, and it’ll help you stay relaxed on a regular basis.

Take a Breath

The simplest stress solution is breathing. Long, deep breaths lower your blood pressure and heart rate, helping you physically relax and even calm down in high anxiety situations.

Sip Some Green Tea

Go green with some herbal tea. It’s a great source of L-Theanine, which helps relieve anger, and, in turn, makes you more relaxed. And, you know, it’s pretty good for you anyway.

Find Somewhere Sunny

With the sun comes relaxation. Take a quick trip outside and just bask in the light. Brightness is known to help people with depression and anxiety, and can definitely cheer you up if you’re a healthy individual.

Organize

It’s hard to relax when your desk or bedroom is messy. Remember, clutter equals stress. Take a minute and organize your things – you’ll be surprised how healing it can really be.

Stretch

Get up, take a quick walk and, most importantly, stretch! Stretching helps relieve some of the muscle tension that builds up throughout the day, especially if you work a desk job. It also gives you a much deserved brain break.

Write Down Your Stressor

Channel your inner 12 year old and keep a diary. Whenever you feel stressed or overwhelmed, write down what you think is causing you to feel that way. You’ll feel instantly more relaxed just because the words now appear on paper.

Sniff a Lemon

Or an orange. Or a lime. Smelling the oils on various citrus fruits can help reduce stress. The scent works with a natural hormone called Norepinephrine, which controls stress, your fight or flight response and much more.
