I slow down and take stock of what is happening. I find that doing both helps me realize things are not as stressful as I am imagining them in my head.

If I get tense, I kindly tell myself that I need to take a deep breath and count to 10. It helps me calm down in a lot of ways. I also like to listen to cool music if I feel stressed.

My naps keep stress at bay.

I nap. If I don't nap, I cannot work for rest of the day. Napping can help to boost energy levels. I hear that in napping is socially acceptable in Japan, but here in my home country napping is a sign of laziness or unemployment.
