Often we worry over things which we have no control over. Know the difference between what you can change and cannot change. Talk out troubles. Find someone to talk to about your worries or frustrations such as your spouse, friends, clergy, or counsellors. Work out your tensions.
Exercise is key to handling stress.
Take care of your body. Get adequate rest, nutrition, and exercise. Tune in to your body. Pay attention to your physical and emotional signs of stress including fatigue, carelessness, apathy and vague aches and pains. Have regular medical checks as physical condition affects a person's outlook on life.
