How do you all manage your stress? I have started having severe tension headaches and neck pain (I know it’s work stress related because it magically resolves by Sunday after not working on the weekend). I cant keep suffering M-F so looking for some tactics I can implement to hopefully relieve some of the stress. TIA

PRAYING !!! (I’m a Christian) … 2. Stress is usually pent up energy with no where to go .. so moving your body … so exercising usually give me mental clarity to see what situation is causing the stress … lastly … just talking about the situation that is causing the stress and doing something fun and being with people you love, and sleep !!! Don’t forget to stay hydrated as well WITH WATER !!!

Life is too short to stress … it causing wrinkles and I’m pretty sure when ur 70 yrs old whatever ur stressing about doesn’t matter .. if just feels big right now !!

Lots of things that might help you, but to name a few, (1) blue light glasses; (2) increase hydration; (3) decrease caffeine if applicable; (4) decrease nicotine if applicable; (5) get more sleep; (6) exercise more.

I'll use liquid IV if I went a little overboard the night before but probably not necessary on a day to day basis. It has a lot of sodium too which could be counterproductive if you have issues with tension headaches.

It may not work for everyone, but I started a program of walking a few years ago and it has helped me a lot. I began by doing a 30-day challenge of walking 30 minutes a day for 30 straight days. I completed the challenge and discovered I enjoyed what I was doing, so I've kept at it. I try to take my walks early in the morning, and I think the exercise every day really does help me handle stress. Besides the exercise, it gives me 45 minutes or so every morning to think and prepare for the day. Move around, it's good for you!

This is a great idea and sounds like a lovely way to start the day. I have been looking for some time in my schedule to take a bike ride, the morning before work might be the best time to incorporate that. Thank you for sharing!

For those of you who do yoga regularly, wondering how you incorporate and/or balance your practice vs. other types of workouts or if you mostly do strengthening type yoga in that case.
