[1] Stress is either acute or chronic (慢性的). So how can we keep the many stresses in our lives from accumulating and becoming super-sized instead of acute and manageable incidents? Here’re important strategies for reducing the impact of inevitable (必然的) stress.
[2] Take Your Vitamins. Be sure to take a daily multi-vitamin. We use up more vitamins under stress, and our multi will help replenish(补充) what we’re burning through.
[3] Get Enough Sleep. Try to get at least seven hours of sleep a night. Sleep repairs your body from the daily wear and tears and improves your immunity.Those who sleep less than seven hours a night are three times as likely to ________ as those who averaged at least eight hours. [4] Eat Right. Starting with a healthy meal will give you more energy to cope with stress later in the day. Steer clear of (避开) junk or highly processed foods. Your body needs nourishment to choose whole grains, fish and lean meats, veggies and fruits. But don’t do without chocolate! [5] Get Walking. Take a 20 minute daily walk on your lunch break, or as part of your commute (通勤). Physical activity mobilizes (调动) endorphins (脑内啡), the “feel good” hormones. If you can’t fit a full 20 minute walk, you can add steps to your day.
[6] Connect with Gratitude. You won’t believe how good it feels to stop and take stock of all. Reach out and appreciate those who contribute to making your life pleasant.
[7] Get Some Face Time. Visit a friend or loved one in person. Your oxytocin (催产素) levels will rise with the pleasure and comfort of the company of a good friend.
[8] Practice Kindness. Do something kind for someone, compliment somebody, wish someone well. Reaching out to help someone reminds us of the interconnected nature of the human experience.
