How to cope with stress

Let go

The human mind knows no limits, it keeps thinking. If some issue out of your control is impacting you and your work, let it go! Take a break from it and divert your mind. Perhaps even a simple walk may help your mind to step away from the stressful thoughts weighing you down.

Routine fix

Any daily routine - wake, work, sleep - can easily become a monotonous grind. But be careful not to make it an unhealthy grind! Watch out for frequently long working hours and ensure you set some time aside to refresh your mind as well as your body.

Care for yourself

Plan activities that you can enjoy and look forward to - dinner with friends, a spa visit or even a quiet one minute meditation.

Consider pets for emotional support

Often overlooked, caring for pets can also be a simple remedy for emotional support. Animal-assisted therapy is one of the growing fields in the healthcare sphere. It has helped people recover from or cope with health problems, such as heart disease, cancer and mental health disorders.
