毫无疑问，生活是很忙乱的，而且总存在压力。坏消息是你无法为此做任何事情。但是好消息是压力是因人而异的。你对压力做出的反应影响你的心理和身体健康！为了给你提供帮助，临床医学家Karen Sherman博士建议七个巧妙的方法解决日常生活中的压力。

Breathe: Though you may not be aware of it, you might actually be holding your breath.  Or, you may breathe in a shallow way, breathing just into your chest.  Start to consciously notice your breathing by placing your hand on your stomach and train yourself to bring your breath into this area.
呼吸：虽然你可能没有意识到，但是你真的会屏住呼吸。或者，你会进行浅呼吸，只吸入到胸部。开始注意你的呼吸，把手放在腹部，训练自己将气带到这个部位。

Relax Your Body: If your body is tight or tense, you’re more likely to jump at a situation.  To help ease bodily tension, as you’re waiting on a line or in traffic, do a muscle tightening and loosening; start at your toes and work up the different muscle groups.  Any time you notice tightness in your body, make sure to relax.
身体放松：如果你身体绷紧或紧张，你就更容易陷入困难处境。为了帮助减轻身体紧张，当你排队或堵车在等待的时候，尝试肌肉收缩和放松；从脚趾头开始，然后唤起不同的肌肉组织。任何你注意到身体紧张的时候，确保要放松。

Hear The Birds: It’s so easy to get caught up in all the things you have to do that you forget to notice all the beauty that’s around you.  Make a point of listening to the birds, of seeing the flowers, of looking at the movement of the clouds.  It’s important to open up your focus.
听听鸟叫声：你很容易陷入所有必须做的事情中去，然后忘记周围所有的美好事物。特别要听听鸟叫声，欣赏花草，观看天空中云的移动。这对扩展你的注意力很重要。
