Take slow, deep breaths
Inhale for 4 counts
Exhale for 6 counts
Relax your shoulders
Unclench your jaw
Stretch your neck and hands
Focus on one task at a time
Drink a glass of water
Step away from the stressor briefly
Walk for a few minutes
Listen to calm music
Reduce caffeine intake
Get fresh air
Ground yourself by naming things you can see
Practice positive self-talk
Close your eyes and rest
Keep a regular sleep schedule
Eat a light, balanced meal
Talk to someone you trust
Write down what is worrying you
