Tips for Staying Calm in Stressful Situations






Controlling your emotions is the first thing you have to learn in order to remain calm even during stressful moments. A nervous breakdown could help you release your frustration for a moment, but at the same time, you might say or do things that you are going to regret later on. So, why not breathe and try to detach yourself from everything?
Our two cents:
Having a good and nutritious breakfast prevents stress throughout the day. Make it a habit to eat healthy in the morning, because people tend to be nervous when they are hungry. The explanation is that the level of serotonin (the "hormone of happiness") decreases, while irritability takes its place. It is advisable to include in your diet foods containing magnesium - a mineral known for its antistress properties (green vegetables, whole grains, almonds, peanuts, bananas, soybean, and fish).
Sport and friends help you relax. By doing regular sports, you will get rid of the accumulated tensions. Moderate physical activity, practiced for 30 minutes, four-five times a week, helps to relax and prevents possible nervous breakdowns.
