Good ways to reduce stress (legally)

Thrasher · January 22, 2018, 05:27:01 PM

So, after an incident this past weekend I need some good ways to reduce stress. Besides the obvious like meditation do you guys have some other suggestions?

Make deep breaths, read books, watch stuff, play stuff, probably do anything that grabs your attention. Talk with people about source of stress

Do you exercise?

If not go for a brisk walk in the morning/afternoon, or even a jog. I felt exercise over the past few months has calmed me down a bit.

Find something you're passionate about and delve into it really deep. It can be a good distraction from the bullshit life throws at you. Especially if you can achieve flow-state while practicing your craft. At that point nothing else exists for you but yourself and the task at hand.

Get a dog

hang out with friends and have a good time
blast your music while you shower
go out and take in the world around you, and photograph it

just a few things i enjoy doing and make me relaxed

Busting a fat load on a girl's face or just chilling with your buddies while playing Smash Bros

Lounge music
or something like this:

YouTube

Jogging in the evenings (for at least 15 minutes) every day helps a lot.
Stay away from your stressors.
Do not resort to alcohol or drugs - it doesn't help.

Exercise is always the key for me.

Sorry for the late reply. Normally during the Spring/Summer/Fall I exercise by running around the block, but since there is snow covered sidewalks I haven't had the opportunity to. This weekend I'll check out prices for my local gyms.

Not sure if the 'get a dog' route will work because of safety reasons. Not sure if combining a new dog with a 14-month old is the best idea. Maybe when she gets a little older.

Tried to listen to meditation sounds (waterfalls, birds chirping, etc.) Didn't really notice a difference.
