Welcome to the club! Bottom line is we will totally get rid of stress in life. In fact mild is good for us at time. But overall  there are many ways to help you control the stress in your life. Here are five unique and invaluable stress reliever methods I’ve collected over the years that you can use almost anywhere, anytime.

1. Yell Out Loud- Just be sure you are alone. One of the best places is in your car with the windows up. Stuck in traffic? Try it one day, it will relieve you of your stress instantly.

2. Sing. This is similar to yelling, but more relaxing. Lots of people swear by the power of music to release tension and stress. Sing wherever you feel comfortable. It doesn’t matter what you sing,  just have fun doing it! Some of my best relaxing moments is when I’m singing to my 1yr old daughter in the car. She looks at me like I’m a star…

3. Start a garden. Even apartment-dwellers can do this. Inside in pots, pots on the patio, pots, a small spot in your yard. There is a little work to setting it up. Tending plants, fruits, vegetables, flowers and watching them grow, bloom, or yield food is rewarding. Avid gardeners say working a garden is the best way to control stress and worry. An added benefit is the creation of a more beautiful, restful environment

4. Do something soothing. Start or try a activity like knitting, sewing, basket weaving. Don’t worry about being good at it. It’s the process that’s beneficial. Sitting still while performing repetitive movements is calming and stabilizing for many people. It can be time to collect your thoughts.

5. Adopt an Animal. Experts have stated  that pet owners live longer lives and have fewer stress related symptoms than non-pet owners. Playing with your pet always put me in a good mood.  Basically,  It’s a form of social interaction where you can be always be yourself.
