How To Cope With Stress Before It Builds Up

Meditation

Meditation is a type of connection between the mind and body that induces a deep state of relaxation and peace. It is free, efficient, and can be done just about anywhere. Meditating asks the individual to close their eyes and focus their attention on one particular word or thought while consciously pushing stress and crowded thoughts out of mind. The idea is to deliberately push stress out of the body by reducing negative thoughts and focusing on self-awareness. When stray thoughts come to mind, and they will for the vast majority of individuals trying to meditate (especially at the beginning), it is alright to acknowledge they are there, but when meditating, it should only be the acknowledgment of the thought and then putting it aside for later, after the meditation session.
