Use 9 Strategies to Help Prevent Stress - Healthy Habits
I have a confession to make. I cut down a tree. I'm 100% sure it was illegal, but then again I'm not sure that it wasn't. You know what though... it was worth it! It's Christmas time and I've been flat out for the last 2 month working on getting a new website and advertising campaign together. Everything finally fell into place 1 week before Christmas. So I clicked "play" on my campaign and then devoted the next week to spending more time with Ellie, my wife, and getting into the Christmas spirit.

Breathe slowly and deeply several times a day. Breath is essential to life. It brings required oxygen for metabolism. It carries away toxins we no longer need. When we are caught in a stress response, our breathing tends to become rapid and shallow. When we breathe slowly and deeply we relax. Drink at least 8 glasses of pure water every day. This practice supports our healthy hydration. We lose fluid every day as part of our natural body processes. When we fail to replace it we can become mildly or severely dehydrated. Virtually every biochemical reaction in our bodies requires adequate water. To function with optimum health drink pure water or herb tea and avoid caffeinated drinks.
Eat a diet rich in whole foods, fruits and vegetables. These plant sources of nutrition provide ideal natural fuel for healthy vital bodies. Whole grains, beans, fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds nourish us with calories, protein, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants which are vital for optimum health. Allow yourself adequate deep sleep -- at least 7 hours per night. Restful sleep is essential for maintaining health. It allows our bodies to repair and rejuvenate after a long active day. After a good night sleep, most people find the next day flows with greater ease, less stress and more happiness.
I had such a sense of accomplishment. I felt great. On the way home I was thinking about the whole thing and realised that if you added up the petrol cost plus the time I had put into it, the tree had cost me way more than the $20-30 I could have gotten it for. But it was worth it!
These programs are being offered online, in classroom format or in the seminar format, and can vary in the topics or areas of teaching. Ranging from life-stress management, job-stress management, managerial stress management, and financial stress management, you will surely be able to find one that will fit your need. As mentioned before, not everything will be effective, some will be more useful than others, that's why it is very important that you assess your particular need first before jumping into this program, as you wouldn't want to end up with another useless technique that you will probably have no use for.
Just for the record I am not advocating doing everything yourself. If you do that with your business you'll never have time for your family. Too many people pay others to do the fun stuff for them while they get stuck with the boring things. Give the boring stuff to someone else. * Hire an accountant to look after your accounts. * Hire a cleaner to clean your house. * Hire an assistant to do your paper work and filing. Then instead of paying someone else, leave the fun stuff for yourself. * Go cut down a Christmas tree with your family. * Take the dogs for a walk yourself. * Spend an extra day each week with your kids. You may feel like it is costing you more to do it this way in the beginning. BUT, I guarantee you it'll work out better for you in the long run. You will be happier, more energetic and love what you're doing. And when you are resting and spending time with your loved ones your creative mind will be growing and you will come up with new and exciting ways to expand your business. You won't feel trapped by your business. You'll feel free. You won't resent the interruptions from your loved ones. You'll Love them. You won't be stressed and constantly tired. You'll be Joyful and at peace.
