Stress is an all-too-common experience that can impact anyone at any time.
Here are a few ideas that I usually practice to slow down my thoughts when stress hits:
π Deep breathing exercises
π Short meditation
π Brief workout
π A walk to the shop to buy ice cream
Your turn. Do you have a special technique to combat stress?

Ooooh good question, especially with the SVB news over the weekend. I tend to zone out, listen to some music and cook, that brings me a lot of zen
A walk in nature does the magic for me.
Go for a walk or do a bit of gaming π
I take a walk around the neighborhood while listening to podcasts/zen music!
Regular meditation helps me a lot. I personally feel entrepreneurs need to include meditation in their routine. Helps a lot when times are tough.

I make sure to stay on a consistent workout routine. I also find that working in public can help, try working in a coffee shop for a few hours π
Just remind yourself that there's a 99% chance that what you're doing now is something you won't even remember a year from now. It's all about perspective.
So go something you really enjoy and come back to the task a bit later.
Take a nice walk, drink matcha!π€©

Do ice baths for 5-7 minsβ¦ it reduces stress and gives you mental clarity, not to mention many other physical benefits βοΈ
Mine is similar to yours:
β’ Controlled deep breathing (30 secs).
β’ ICE COLD beet juice (lowers heart rate AND blood pressure).
β’ (One hour) βmeditationβ with ethereal music.

I go for a walk with my dog. When we walk and run together, the stress melts away.
