Sadly, stress seems to be part of everyday life these days, but it shouldn’t be! So if you’re feeling the pressure at work and juggling a busy lifestyle, why not try some of our simple tips for eliminating stress that you may not have thought of before:
Peel an orange or a lemon. The smell of citrus reduces the feeling of stress.
Walk with a spring in your step. If you walk as if you’re happy, you will feel happier.

Think of your life as a film and make up some funny lines you would put in if you were the director. It might sound silly but it could help make light of a hard day!
Go outside. Even if its for a few minutes while you eat lunch. It may seem basic, but taking some deep breaths can truly help relieve stress.
Plan a holiday somewhere you have always wanted to go. Spend time planning it, such as saving up and choosing new clothes. Having a focus will help stress seem less significant.
Look up a few motivational memes at the beginning of the day. Cheesy as they can be, they might just inspire you and kickstart you into a day of progress, or at least make you smile!
