Identify your trigger points

Self-awareness can play a major role in reducing your stress.

Also, writing journals immensely helps people to understand what they are feeling. It also becomes a mechanism to take out the stress from your system.

Healthy Lifestyle

Exercise, a balanced diet and proper sleeping pattern can also immensely improve your stress levels. When you exercise your body releases endorphins or feel-good hormones. Endorphins help uplift your mood, boost self-esteem and improve sleep. Similarly, a balanced diet will give your body the required nutrition which can help it to stay healthy. On the other hand, an unhealthy diet can cause mood swings, blood sugar fluctuation and deficiencies.

Also, drink plenty of water. Staying hydrated is important to fight stressors.

Better organization
