Five ways to manage stress:

Take breaks throughout the day away from your workplace - move away from where you are working. If you work in an office this may mean just going outside and taking in some fresh air. If you already work outside then perhaps going into the work cafeteria for a breakaway is just as good.

Introduce laughter and fun into your daily life.

Find ways to laugh at silly situations or introduce some playful approaches to your daily routines. For me, since I work alone and from home, it means occasionally taking a bit of time out to watch comedians on YouTube.

Physical activity.

This is especially important to those of us who are spending a lot of time at a desk (even standing desks) or in confined spaces. Taking a walk a couple of times a day is all that’s needed but you can increase this if you take exercise classes. It's entirely up to what level of exercise you want. The point is to move around, and if you can do it outside surrounded by greenery all the better.

Breathing exercises

It may seem trivial to take time out of your day to well, breathe. But the benefits of breathing exercises have been proven time and time again. All you need to do is sit and concentrate on your breath as it moves in and out of your body. Try this square breathing exercise. Doing this a few times a day will help interrupt negative thought patterns and calm your body.

Increase your EQ (emotional intelligence) skillset.

EQ is crucial to professional and personal success but is often misunderstood.

The easiest way to begin improving your EQ is to take a bit of time to reflect on those things that went well throughout the day. Once you’ve identified the successes, congratulate yourself and celebrate these. Then turn your mind to things that didn't go so well and review what happened without judgement. Ask yourself, 'If I was to do that again what different choices could I have made?' and 'how would that have played out?'.

Try to imagine what a more positive outcome could be.

Do this as many times as you like with different imagined scenarios. Then finish this exercise off by considering what you would do in the future if this situation should arise again. This activity helps us become more self-aware and more able to be flexible in our responses and choices when stressful situations arise. Here are some more stress-busting techniques that you can also try. You may also be inspired by Michelle who learned how to beat stress at work through career coaching.
