Did you know that stress is the most common mental health problem in the US? This is a worrying trend, especially as people who suffer from high levels of stress, and twice as likely to fall foul to mental health conditions like anxiety and depression. The fact is that our bodies are built to be able to manage stress effectively, or at least, certain levels of stress. However, when we are under extreme stress on an almost constant basis, it can start to take a toll on your health and wellness.

The good news is that just because stress can cause mental health problems, it doesn’t have to. If you are clear about the steps that you need to take to lead a life that’s less affected by stress, you can ensure that you live a life that’s as free of stress as possible. Obviously, you can’t cut all stress out of your life, but what you can do is learn to manage any stress that you are under in the right way, so that it has little impact on your health and wellness. Here’s how to do that:

Ensure you work in an environment that you love

Whether you work in a tiny office cubicle or have the luxury of working from home, it’s vital that you ensure that your workspace is somewhere that you love. The fact is that we spend the majority of our waking hours at work, which is why working in a space that you love it so important. You would be amazed how much stress an environment that you don’t like can create. You can turn any workspace into somewhere that you enjoy being – even a tiny office cubicle – it’s just a case of perspective. Adding an indoor plant, some copper fairy lights, a framed photo, and some cute, quirky stationery to your desk is all it takes to turn it into somewhere that you love.

Utilize alternative treatments

When it comes to managing stress, there are, of course, a range of medical treatments on offer. For instance, for conditions like anxiety and depression that are linked to stress, there are calming tablets that you can take. However, it’s often more beneficial to opt to take a more natural approach, utilizing herbs and other natural botanicals to prevent and manage stress naturally. If you head to your local health food store, you should be able to find natural stress relieving tablets, such as Redicalm, for instance. Taking a natural approach is always best, as the last thing you want is to get stuck using drugs on a daily basis so that you begin to rely on them.

Live a clutter-free life

Did you know that clutter can have an impact on your health and wellness? Various studies have shown that clutter can have a negative impact on your health because it can elevate your levels of stress. Aim to make your home and workspace as minimalistic (and free from clutter) as possible, to help reduce the amount of stress that you feel.

There you have it, a few handy hacks for leading a life that’s less affected by stress. Take note of the tips above, and you can ensure that stress is no longer a problem in your life.
