Make a list of small things that annoy you: a leaky faucet, the closet door coming off its hinge & a burned light bulb. Fix these things.

While working, set a timer to go off every 40 minutes. Then get up, drink water, stretch, sit back & close your eyes for a few minutes.

Live within your means, create a spending plan, and have an investment strategy. Overspending causes unnecessary stress & worry.

Strive for excellence not perfection. Perfectionism makes you zero in on what’s wrong, creating frustration, stress & dissatisfaction.

Don’t sweat the small stuff & remember that it’s all small stuff. Stop focusing on little problems & blowing them out of proportion.

Arrange a ‘surprise’ for yourself: Go to an online florist, choose a beautiful bouquet & send it to yourself to arrive 3 weeks from now.

Induce the relaxation response by cuddling your pet, giving an unexpected hug to a friend or talking about good things in your life.

When feeling stressed, do a common activity slowly, carefully & with focused attention allowing your nervous system a take a break.

Tense your whole body & hold it as long as you can without feeling pain. Slowly release & gradually feel it leave your body. Repeat 3 times.

Eat mindfully by sitting down & focusing your full attention on the meal. Eat slowly, taking time to fully enjoy & concentrate on each bite.
