quot;Coast" if necessary.
Worry only about that which can be changed by you. I like the quotation which goes something like this: "Accept that which cannot be changed by you and let God give me the wisdom to know the difference." I often do not follow this rule.
Use your imagination to reduce your stress levels. Be creative.
Learn to switch off thinking about work when you get home.
Think about your diet and eat nutritious food.

Learn to confide in others.
Learn to accept what can't be changed in others, eg.. personality or decisions.
Learn to accept that some things aren't as important to others as they are to you.
Learn to delegate.
Learn to recognize stress. Do not become so accustomed to feeling stress that it becomes a normal part of your life.
Have trust in other people.
And finally, no matter how stressful or hopeless your situation may appear to be...
Have FAITH IN YOURSELF AND ESPECIALLY IN GOD, The Spirit of the Universe that things ill eventually work out for you.
Just know that a Supreme Being (Infinite Intelligence or Life Force) has a plan for your life and it is to do good deeds,make a difference in the world and make the most of your amazing potential.
Do all this and watch your stress levels drastically reduce.
