I really agree with these 6 tips, although I think the one I struggle with the most is exercise. Sometimes it’s so hard to be motivated! But the sun is shining to today and I’m going to force myself to go for a walk!

I’m definitely with you, Yaro, when it come to needing at least 8 hours sleep. Sadly though, I find that some people tend to mock me, or imply that I’m lazy or a nanna for placing a value on 8 hours sleep. They are too “busy” with “more important things” for the luxury of a good night’s sleep. It makes me feel guilty. The same goes for striving towards a balance life that isn’t ruled by the 9-5. It seems that some people view it as an inappropriate goal, like I should do the things I enjoy as a hobby and get a “proper” job to pay my bills.

Have you experienced this? How to you deal with it?

Exercise is definitely a great way to reduce stress. Whether you are having some writers block, or stressing about a coming exam. A great break for you to take is to go running! Or to do some other type of fitness activity. It will take your mind off of the stress and its really healthy for you. I absolutely agree with you about “craving”’ exercise. I can tell you that as a runner, it is addicting! You just want more and more, and people think you are crazy Its really sad how people abuse their body’s. Lack of proper nutrition, sleep, exercise… no wonder we are grumpy and sick!

Good articles! Balance is very important to provide quality of life. Music is a good thing and can give moments of relaxation. Sleep is vital for rest, food is the nutrition and energy and fuel the body needs. Exercise is vital to keep the joints and muscles in condition.

It is very difficult to play competitively in the 4th quarter if you are not prepares with rest, exercise, food and a relaxed mind. Stress is a tough row to hoe and get through a daily grind. Try suggestions in the article for 21 days and see your quality of life increase and stress decrease.

The title is a compliment. The most evolved men realize that it does not detract from your masculinity; rather, it adds to it. All part of liberating your consciousness to attain new heights (as I said, we live the same life).

I’m not sure I like the honorary woman title… and about 80% is as high as I go, I prefer a little milk in my chocolate.

Dude! You and I live the same life!! except for the trance part, which I don’t get because I’m not sure what it is. I was thrilled to see your chocolate comment, especially since not many men truly appreciate the stuff. I wrote a whole post on it. Have you tried the 99%? It is beyond, and consuming it in any quantity can be excused for its medicinal qualities. I hereby dub you an honorary woman. Be proud.

It is welcoming sometimes to call an old friend and schedule lunch, put the blackberry on vibrate, and enjoying one of the finer things in life, pleasurable conversation with another human being. No cell, email, text message or blog! Just sit across the table and look eyeball to eyeball. This does wonders to keep relationships strong and channels of communication open.

Once a week and you would be amazed at the residual social and financial rewards.

[...] Thankfully I know and heed the warning signs and I always prioritize health above everything else. I know about stress and I’ve laid out my favorite tips to reduce stress as well. When you can’t sleep or exercise or eat properly because of other aspects of your life something has to change.

Hi, I fully agree with you on the exercise bit. Same thing with the rest. But with the exercise, the rest will just follow…naturally.

In order to reduce stress and improve the overall quality of life physical exercise is quite helpful as you age. It keeps the juices flowing that regulate the bodyÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s physical functions. Meditation is also wonderful and forgotten tool to alleviate the stress that fills our lives. Meditation can release the anxiety and frustrations in daily live and quite the spirit.

To reduce and keep stress under control, you need a combination of the physical and mental stimuli to blend together. One without the other leads to an out of balance condition.

Well done for putting exercise at the top of the list because it’s the engine that drives the other two aspects of life, diet and rest. I too am a firm believer of being fit for life and fit for work. It makes a huge difference to your wellbeing.

You don’t get anywhere being lazy.

Interesting comment Thai-

What is your source of stress? And are you a big fan of Thai food? My buddy and I from work eat Thai at least two times a week. Usually Pad Thai, or the #6 combo which has oyster noodles.

hey Yaro,

It was really a wonderful post.

Stress reduction can help us to manage our lives efficiently. We can decrease stress by reviewing life and its potential problems, solutions and resources.

I’ve been getting a consistent dose of these 6 items listed. They key is to make time for them, and get yourself away from work…or whatever the stress source is.

Charlie -

I am glad to see that your mood has changed, maybe now you can be friends with Yaro and the gang here. When you change your mind and turn that frown upside down, that can be the best stress reliever of all.

I smoked 2 and a half joints of marijuana cigarettes at my friend Paco’s house on his porch. We had some popsicles but there was some gross stuff on them from this meat that thawed out all in his freezer when his power was cut. I’m not so stressed though.

Yaro, what do you think about illicit cigarettes such as these? I mean, to me, smoking such things are fine because they are natural.

Yaro– your follow up comments really resonated with me and for the past 24 hours I have fully committed myself to your 6 step program. I am now sleeping better, watching what I eat and I think I have even achieved a better work-life balance. I realize that “the new me” is only a day old but I am already seeing the benefits– my wife even commented this morning that I looked “more relaxed than usual” and “seem[ed] a lot less angry.” I only have you to thank for your keen insights into entrepreneurialism, auto-eroticism and life in general. Beyond providing tried and true advice that will make me an even more successful business person, you might well have saved my marriage. And I only have you to thank, Yaro. Well, you and Mr. Toadluva. Thanks again guys. Also, perhaps I should re-read all of my L. Ron Hubbard books to supplement my training?

You see, to me, it seems like there are two options, one is to be a Charlie and to sit there with a bottle of Two Finger’s Tequila and talk to “women” or call up your “friends.” OR you could just release your stress in appropriate ways with excercise, health, good choices, and a vivacious online community of funtastic friends!

I would also maybe add Yaro that one other tip could be to avoid internet pornography. It definitely messes up the Stress-Pulverizer routine because you stay up all night looking at that crap and then you feel like a perverted filthy lecher.

I feel like if I am pornography free and avoid putting down others and insulting them (like our earlier poster Charlie seems prone to do), then I can embrace the Stress-Pulverizer routine with zeal.

I also struggle with guilt issues and I sometimes smoke pot. Both ALSO STRESSFUL.

Part of the balance of your life should include fun, and fun should factor in things like Alcohol as well.. Doesn’t have to, but it does give a balance that way. Alcohol has been proven in so many occasions to be good for you in a balance routine. Not only does it help relaxation it also helps blood flow and many other things.

Exercise is important, but sticking with one Exercise is even more important. If you want to maintain your Exercise routine, you need just that, a routine, one which focuses on a certain Exercises for fitness and another for muscle gain.
