Psychological stress is mental stress. Everyone has experience in modern life. Generally speaking, there are three stressors of society, life and competition. Excessive or excessive stress can harm your health. So, how do we adjust when we have psychological stress? Let me ask you the psychological network to introduce several ways to adjust pressure.

First, exercise decompression

Exercise can make the body produce the nostril effect, which can delight the nerves. Nopalea is a hormone of the body and is called the "happy factor". The nostril effect makes people feel happy and satisfied, and can even take away stress and unhappiness. So exercise is a good way to relieve stress and make people maintain a benign and peaceful mentality.

1.Learn how to exercise

Exercise decompression also requires a certain method. If the method is not correct, it will not help decompression, but may cause more stress. If you want to relieve stress through exercise, you can first participate in some mild, low-volume exercise to calm down the mood Then gradually transition to a large amount of exercise. This needs to be done step by step.

If the stress comes from work and study, then you can participate in some collective sports, such as basketball, volleyball, etc. During these sports, you can experience the joy of cooperation.

2. Choice of sports environment

Sports environment has a key impact on decompression. A good environment can make the effect more obvious.

For example, people who often exercise indoors will feel more relaxed and happy when they go hiking outdoors in the woods. In a quiet place, keep your eyes closed for a few minutes and take a few deep breaths to achieve the best relaxation and decompression.

Second, meditation decompression

Through meditation, imagine the places you like, such as the sea, mountains, etc., and relax your mind; focus your thoughts on the "look, smell, and listen" of the imagination, and let yourself enter the imagination, just like the sea and mountains In, I enjoyed that kind of spiritual relaxation.

Third, diet decompression

Dietary decompression is also a good choice. Many people will adjust their diet when they are under severe psychological stress. If you are stressed, you may wish to eat the following foods:

1.Eat pineapple

Pineapples are rich in vitamins b and c. They all have the effect of eliminating fatigue and releasing stress. In addition, pineapples also contain enzyme ingredients, which can help protein to be fully digested and broken down, thereby reducing the gastrointestinal burden.

2.Squash seeds

Sunflower seeds also have a good effect of eliminating fatigue. This is because the seeds contain abundant nutrients such as unsaturated fatty acids and vitamins. Especially the zinc in it can soothe mood and eliminate fatigue. The same seeds can also relax your brain and get rid of bad emotions and psychological stress.

Fourth, massage decompression

When your stress is too high, try a massage. We know that physical tension and depression can also lead to psychological tension and depression. When your body relaxes through massage, your psychological stress will also relax.

First, good at overall planning: "Everything is under control", this feeling can ease the pressure itself. It may be a lot easier to accept things faced selectively rather than passively. The best way is to make a list according to the priority of the matter. It can not only have an overall plan, but also help break down a seemingly cluttered problem into specific small things. Complete one and cross one on the list. The sense of accomplishment that you get from doing this is enough to encourage you to continue this practice.

2. Early confidence when confused: "Unpressed" people always seek help from their friends when they are confused, troublesome, or sad. When things get very difficult or anxious, tell your friends that just talking to them can also release people and maybe get good advice.

Third, try to stay optimistic: "No pressure" people are convinced that things can always go in the desired direction. Therefore, always imagine the best results with the most optimistic mood. Everything that needs to be done is already in progress, and even if you are in trouble, you will definitely readjust the state as quickly as possible.

Fourth, never delay: Don't delay the things that can be done at that time to a few hours. Because many things are left unfinished, they can cause huge psychological pressure.

Fifth, often dream of bright prospects: Encourage yourself with the bright prospects after the crisis. "A month later, will I still regret it?" "A week later, will I still blame me for missing this meeting?" "In 5 minutes, I will embarrass my colleague just for me. Annoyed? "This assumption of pushing the situation into the future will surely release the immediate pressure.

6. Know that people who say "No" at the appropriate time feel pressured to do so in a timely manner and will firmly say "No." "I want to help you, but I have other things at hand. "When the avatar is incompetent or powerless, the" pressureless "person will not blindly fail. When rejecting others, it is not necessary to explain the reasons clearly.

7. Have your own way of entertainment: "No pressure" people can always arrange a certain amount of time to do things that have nothing to do with work and have always wanted to do. There are various ways of entertainment, but the effects are very similar: let yourself release the pressure, enjoy the beautiful and worthwhile content in life, and restore the passion and love for life and work.
