Stop Gritting Your Teeth Stress tends to settle in certain parts of our bodies, the jaw being one of them. When things get hectic, clench your teeth and inhale deeply. Hold the breath for a moment, and as you exhale say, "Ah-h-h-h," then unclench your teeth. Repeat a few times. Clenching your teeth let you know what unclenching feels like!
Remember - motion produces emotion. Grit your teeth and you will feel stressed.

Stress Management Tip #5
Rate the Fate Using a scale of one to ten, with one being the equivalent of a minor hassle and ten being a true catastrophe, assign a number to whatever it is that's making you feel anxious. Most problems rate somewhere in the two to five range, I.E. they're really not such a big deal.
Basically, chill out, it isn't that bad. Stop fantasizing and exaggerating.
Just relax, tomorrow is another day.

Stress Management Tip #3
1. Visualize Calm Close your eyes, take three long, slow breaths, and spend a few seconds picturing a relaxing scene, such as walking in a meadow, kneeling by a brook, or lying on the beach. Focus on the details: sights, sounds, smells.

Stress Management Tip #2
1. Breathe Easily "Breathing from your diaphragm oxygenates your blood, which helps you relax almost instantly," says Robert Cooper, Ph.D. Shallow chest breathing, by contrast, can cause your heart to beat faster and your muscles to tense up, exacerbating feelings of stress. To breathe deeply, begin by putting your hand on your abdomen just below the navel. Inhale slowly through your nose and watch your hand move out as your belly expands. Hold the breath for a few seconds, exhale slowly. Repeat several times.

Stress Management Tip #1
1. Laugh Emotions are led by motions. Smiling transmits nerve impulses from the facial muscles to the limbic system, a key emotional center in the brain, tilting the neurochemical balance toward calm. So the expression “grin and bear it” actually has medical merit!!

What exactly is Stress relief management (SRM)?
SRM alleviates from the hassles you experience in your daily life. To simplify, there are some things you could do to help deal with pressure or at least manage it better.

For a totally new perspective on life tomorrow and beyond, here are some stress management tips to welcome into your life now. Always give yourself time to relax and unwind. Though you might be very busy or have no time to do this, you just have to.
The human body needs to rest once in a while and do some repair and recharging. It needs space to breathe and just stop all the worrying. The body also needs time to soothe and calm itself from all the running and pacing back and forth. Ideally, allow yourself about four to six hours a week of doing just nothing.
This is a cheapest reward you can give yourself. It will not cost you even a single cent. How about your schedule? Stress relief management plays a big part on your schedule. Do you schedule your day to day activities, or do you stuff it all in countless hours of working and do whatever you can do? This is very tough and could prove to be unhealthy. It may result in disorientation if not properly addressed sooner.
Buying a day planer will surely help manage tension better. Invest in some stress relief products available these days. Place them where you need them and store them where you can easily reach and find them.
A stress relief ball is a good example of an effective stress relief product to own. It lets you work your way through hassles and making it appear lesser and much easier to handle.
You could bring one to work, and place it nearby for easier access and can instantly soothe any stressful moment. Some of these tips and advices could help you find balance and rhythm especially in situations which are constantly plagued by tension and worry.
