Stress control requires your being able to put aside the demands(需求) and stressors(紧张) in your daily life, at least temporarily(临时地). Many people have actually lost the ability to relax and create emotional distance from troubling thoughts and may need to retrain their body and mind to relax effectively. 2. Pay attention to physical health.. Remember that stress results from a combination(结合) of physical(身) and mental(心) factors(因素). If your body isn‘t able to handle these challenges, you aren’t going to be capable(能够) of effective stress management. 3. Become a time management expert. Finding extra minutes in your day need not be an insurmountable (不能克服的, 不能超越的) task, and those daily minutes add up. 4. Exercise regularly.Exercise not only stimulates(刺激) release of endorphins(安多酚), the body‘s natural stress-fighters, but it also helps lower stress hormone(荷尔蒙) levels. You'll also be healthier and better prepared to deal with both physical and mental demands. Language focus prefer ( preferred, preferred; preferring )
