Stress is a common thing to have nowadays, and with only a couple of days until the opening night of a production I’m currently in, I can relate. Very easily. So today I’m here to help prevent and relieve some of the day to day stress we come across.
One of the main things I like to do to relieve stress is to literally just take a second and breathe. I know it sounds cliche, but trust me, it does help you to not lash out on anyone and to clear your thoughts.
Another way I help to ease my stress is to write things down. Just make lists of things you have to do, and then make lists of your lists. It helps you to organize your mind so everything isn’t all scrambled constantly. The best part about this one is that you can write things down anywhere. Your phone, a piece of paper, or even your arm can be used to jot things down. I personally use a bullet journal, and it helps me to stay on track and not forget to do anything whilst I live a hectic life.
The last tip I have is to eat healthily and drink plenty of water. Many people tell you this, but your brain and body truly do work better when well nourished. Always carry a water bottle and some healthy snacks in case you get hungry.
These are just some quick and easy ways to help relieve stress. The strategies don’t stop here! You can relieve stress in any way that works for you, I just wanted to share some ways that worked for me. Anyways, I hope this helped you a bit and I’ll see you guys next time!

I am so happy that you are excited about Journaling! I have one Journal and I have been using it for the past few years. You just inspired me to start journaling again. Thank you for commenting!
