11. Use aromatherapy.
The evidence of aromatherapy as a cure-all is mixed, but if you genuinely like certain scents (like peppermint, lavender, or cinnamon), aromatherapy is undoubtedly beneficial.
Keep candles, incense, or air fresheners in your workspace so you can call upon them as needed.
12. Meditate.
The benefits of meditation are extraordinary, and it’s easy to get started. There are many varieties of meditation, but mindfulness meditation may be one of the best entry-level forms for stress management.
The idea is to clear your mind, observing your own thoughts and allowing them to pass; you may also be instructed to focus your attention on something stable, like the sound of your own deep breathing.
In any case, meditation can clear your head and reduce your subjective feelings of stress—especially if you practice regularly.
