Stress is a condition in our body that threatens a person's capacity to adjust to the internal and external demands of life. Most of the time, it's a challenge for us to deal with it. Thus, I'd like to share seven (7) long-strategies for dealing with stress.

7. Let it all out.

Don't let the stress and frustration overcome you. Overtly express your thoughts, feelings, through tears and laughters, to ease the tension in your body. Sometimes, it is better to release that feelings on the shoulder of a loved one or a confidant for this helps you to be more relaxed and relieved than any amount of time management, deep breathing or rational discussion.
