Top 5 Ways to Fight Stress

Lidya, 45, a yoga teacher in the Upper Eastern side of NYC gets chatty about her unique ways of fighting stress, in addition to doing Yoga of course! Let’s check out these cool ways to get rid of all that dirty stress from our lives. And guess what, Lydia says that all her tips apply to people of all ages!

1. Exchange sweet nothings with your partner

“Contrary to the belief that only sexual intercourse can fight stress, I believe in sharing sweet nothings with my husband Ross when we don’t have much time on hand”, said Lidya. “What fights my stress is that we vent the entire day’s happenings on each other and don’t keep anything inside us. And of course, we never miss out on the flirting”, she winked.

2. Indulge in aphrodisiacs

“Aphro…what?”, we asked Lydia, confused. Laughing aloud she said, “Aphrodisiacs are great ways of fighting stress. They are foods that release the happy hormones in your body and make you feel elated and light”. Go get your dose of dark chocolate, exotic cheese and wine to fight that stress today.

3. Get some retail therapy

“Going shopping doesn’t always mean spending tons of money”, said Lidya. “You can always window shop to fight stress. All the color, glitz, glamor and the buzz of the mall and the flea markets will get you so charged up, that you won’t feel stressed anymore”, she added. Friends, we’re sure that the men out there wouldn’t mind using retail therapy to fight stress.

4. Get a foot massage

“The reason I did not recommend getting a full body massage as a way to fight stress is not only because it is conventional but it’s expensive too”, said Lydia, making a valid point. “Men and women can go to unisex salons to get foot massages. They’re quick, cheap and extremely relaxing ways to fight stress away”, she added. Lydia suggests you get your foot massage done from a Thai owned spa.

5. Take a power nap

Here’s an interesting technique to fight stress that Lydia employs, along with her daily dose of Yoga. “Since I start by early mornings and end by late evenings, I have no time to take rest in the afternoon. This fatigues me often and in order to fight the stress caused from this tight schedule, I take 15 minute power naps at a few intervals”, she said. Are the men heeding this convenient tip to fight stress at the workplace?
