PPTFive Tested Stress Busters
Take a brief break from a stressful situation and do something small and constructive, like washing your car or getting a hair cut.
Get help with a stressful task from a co-worker, boss, or friend.
Concentrate intensely on reading, surfing the Internet, a sport, or hobby. Contrary to common sense, concentration is at the heart of stress reduction.
Finish anything you have started. Accomplishing almost anything reduces some stress.
Find somebody or something that makes you laugh, and have a good laugh.
