Practice deep breathing techniques to instantly calm your mind. Inhale deeply for a count of four, hold for four, and exhale for four. Repeat until you feel serene.

Spend a few minutes each day meditating or practicing mindfulness. These practices can help you stay grounded and reduce anxiety.

Dark chocolate contains compounds that can boost mood and reduce stress. Enjoy a small piece when you need a sweet treat and mood lift.
7. Take a Nature Walk:

Rain or shine, spend time in nature to connect with the outdoors. A simple walk in the park or forest can do wonders for reducing stress and anxiety.
8. Try Yoga or Tai Chi:
-
Both yoga and Tai Chi combine gentle movements with deep breathing, promoting relaxation and reducing stress.
9. Stay Hydrated:

Dehydration can exacerbate stress symptoms. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your body and mind in balance.
