This is a little different post compared to the posts that I have done before. I thought to write how I relieve my stress when working. I don’t know whether the methods mentioned here are 100% psychologically accurate. But I’m pretty sure that these won’t do any harm on you .

In our day to day work there are many situations where our stress increases due to various reasons. Some of them are work load, pressure mounted by the boss, unwanted interactions or behavior of other employees. When the stress is up, it is very hard to carry our day to day work. Most of the time I work, I face lot of stress due to the industry that I’m in. But when I’m stressed the first thing I do is going out from my desk and have a small walk about 5 minutes around the office or outside the office. If I’m still feeling stress, I normally listen to a classical or a mind relaxing song. Sometimes I listen to mind relaxing music.

I also do blogging as I mentioned in a previous post (Blogs, are they relieving our mental stress?) where I definitely relieve my mental stress in a great way. Another thing I do sometimes is looking at a fish tank 3D screen saver. And sometimes if I feel stress when I’m not working and at home, I play video games and watch movies. But one thing I don’t do is getting angry with someone on something. It will double, triple your stress.

Meditation is a very good way of relieving stress. There are many techniques where you can do meditation while you work which ultimate target is relieving your stress. But truly speaking, I haven’t done it yet which I would love to do. Some time when I feel stress, I talk with someone about it. If I can’t talk, I will definitely at least have a web chat with someone who cares about me and always willing to help.

These are the methods I follow to relieve from stress. Almost all of these techniques work for me. If you think that these might be useful to you also, why don’t you have a try? And let me know how you felt. To tell you the truth, I wrote this blog when I felt a great stress. Now I feel more comfortable.
