Getting back to reality, with all the responsibilities, deadlines and tasks, after a happy and overwhelming holidays, can push you to the limit, which could create a negative effect to your body and health.
To alter this, here are some of the practices you can do to put you back on track.
ORGANIZE YOUR LIFE
One of the things that can improve your productivity and manage stress is to organize your life as a whole, as COSMOPOLITAN PHILIPPINES reports.
You can start doing that by having a notebook or a sheet where you can write everything you have to do. Next is to list down your tasks chronologically based on the urgency of it. Doing so can help you be more focused on your tasks on a specific time, which can also lessen your anxiety and depression, aside from stress.
Another thing you can do to manage your stress is to fix your things and put them in the right places. This can be simple yet considered as one of the tips that can give out the best results.
Just like how the saying goes "orderliness is next to godliness," having an orderly place can indeed give you a more relaxed mind, which could boost your production and also relieves your body's tensions.
Group your things, especially if you are in your workplace. Place everything you frequently use near you, so you won't need to invest extra time to get your things at work.
DO SOME STRETCHES
Stretching can benefit you more than you thought it could be, especially when relaxing your muscles from tensions. Given this, it is better to invest 10 to 15 minutes of your time stretching or doing your twists while seated at your desk.
As you do these simple exercise, you will feel extra refreshed and relieved from the tension of your body specifically your neck, upper back, and shoulders. Better to practice this as often as you could.
