Not food.

Not sleeping.

And certainly not shopping.

Exercising, maybe?

Well you may be in for a surprise..

The mighty Pen and Paper tandem - the best stress-reducer of all time.

Or if you want to go high tech, we can consider a PDA.
So how do you relieve stress? Just write everything down.

No, I don’t mean write as an outlet (though this would belong to the group mentioned earlier), which most bloggers normally do, aside from binge on pizza
I think our minds are pre-occupied with things that are pending 95 % of the time. And these things are mostly the ones which we cannot face at the moment. So we worry about them and get ulcers, trying to keep up with the ever-increasing data in our brains. And we can only keep so much. When our minds get overloaded, we get stressed out from too much thinking.

When you practice the habit of writing things down so you do not have to worry about forgetting them, you relieve the pressure in your head so you can’t concentrate better. It also frees you to use your imagination and creativity in a more positive setting. This translate to better work, better relationships, lesser outbursts, more time to think and do the things you love.

Don’t try stuffing it all in your head.

Write it down.
