How you manage to keep your mind fresh, and yourself happy even when you are in stress and tension?

There's a lot you can do, you could just chill and think. You could go outside and take deep breathes, or hang out with friends...or you could do it the fun way: hypnotize yourself. Do this by sitting on your bed. Tell yourself not to move, just relax, you feel each part of your body becomming loose and limp. Start at your head and work your way down to your feet. Then tell yourself that your arm is becomming so light and limp that it's rising into the air. If your arms are riaing tell yourself that they're getting heavy again and sinking back to your body. Now give yourself a comand like relax or don't worry so much about school. Or another fun thing is magick. Write a spell on your own using your own energy, if you get one someone else wrote it won't work as well... It must Ryme...I don't know why LOL that's just a rule, anyway as your saying your spell imagine yourself becomming less and less stressed. Focus on your spell. Nothing else. If you worry it won't work it won't, you must believe it will, trust me i've cast spells that wouldn't work because I worried it wouldn't work. Now don't expect immediate results it'll take a day or few. Mail me if you want more info!! :)

Vitamin D is good for stress. It helps people who have seasonal affective disorder and don't get enough sun in the winter time. My pharmacist who is very knowledgeable suggests at least 2,000 i.u. a day.

Valerian root is also good as well as chamomile tea. There are herbal teas you can get from the health food store specifically to help you relax and sleep. Meditation is a great way to relieve stress and you can get meditation C.D's to help you.

Sometimes when I am stressed at work, I will go into the bathroom and do mini meditations by closing my eyes, taking in a deep breath and just focusing on my breathing for a minute or two. It helps to reduce the stress. You can even visualize yourself at a beach while doing this as your subconscious mind doesn't know whats real or not, and it's what controls your body functions.

I find physical exercise is great for stress too. Going for a brisk walk and repeating positive phrases is great too. Sometimes when I am stressed I will go for a brisk walk and repeat phrases I learned from a Tony Robbins C.D. I say in rhythm to my walking, "Every day and every way I'm feeling happier and happier, yes!" I may change the phrase as well by saying "Every day and every way I'm feeling better and better yes." I also touch each of my fingertips while saying this while walking as it "anchors" it to my subconscious mind.

I also have a gratitude list and write what I'm grateful for even when I'm not feeling grateful.

I hope this is helpful,

Good Luck,

Michelle,

Yoga is an excellent stress relief technique. It involves a series of both moving and stationary poses, combined with deep breathing. The physical and mental benefits of yoga provide a natural counterbalance to stress, and strengthen the relaxation response in your daily life.

I used to feel stress every time i started to study

but then I thought it's all about what u tell yourself

so i took a piece of paper and wrote encouraging stuff

like: I am happy and stuff like that then i would keep repeating it for a while. After a period of time I begin to believe what I wrote.

that's how I take control.It's all about taking control and convincing yourself.

To keep your day wholesome and not stressful, you must start it with God. Read a verse or two to start your day from the Bible. Asked God what He wants you to understand from that verse. God will give you His thoughts through that verse. Thank Him for the message. Stick to what God had told you to do. Be sensitive to His small still voice. The Holy Spirit is working with you. You can follow my daily routine. Every day after praying I keep in my mind my daily motto: "Speak no evil, hear no evil, do no evil and see no evil." This is my formula everyday.

Go do Meditateon and you will get the answer soon.
