The actual task of stress is to deal with the problems or threats but then after dealing body needs to take rest or break. Body rest will make the body recover and increase stress resistance. It is important to not keep your body under stress all the time. Therefore, it is recommended to learn to actively relax and switch. Bad habits like smoking, drinking, overreacting, and using internet too much during stress will not release stress but increase it. Instead we should move to effective ways like sports, reading, writing, and walking.
2. Eat Right
Most of us have diet problems and we are not taking good diet that positively affect our body. If we control our diet we can improve stress resistance. The reason is if we keep our body under stress, it will need more vitamins, proteins, and trace elements. If we have bad diet, it will negatively affect our body and mind. But if we go with eating eggs, beans, nut, and dairy products, it will give boost to the vitamins and proteins and we can cope with the deficiency of the stress.

4. Treat Negativity as Hypotheses
It is recommended to make this your habit to reassess negative thoughts. The chronic stress and anxiety makes a person to think negatively to all threats and problems. Conventionally, a person in the end will start thinking he is a bad specialist (based on minimal or no evidence). So it is important to treat these negative thoughts as hypotheses. Let's take an example, whenever you feel you are a bad person, we should not take this as a statement but must look in details. We should make a list of mistakes we did in a month and compare it with those things that you did very well in a month. It will surely reduce your stress levels and you will feel relaxed and happy after seeing less mistakes and more good work.
