5. Sleep it off
The power of a good night’s sleep should never be underestimated, especially when you’re stressed. “If you’ve got a tight deadline, resist the urge to pull an all-nighter,” cautions Bremridge. “After you’ve had a good night’s sleep, you will work faster, more efficiently and at a more effective pace, than trying to work on no sleep.” Always try to get as close to eight hours of sleep per night as possible.
According to Bremridge, when it comes to managing the stress in your life effectively, the winning formula is decidedly simple: “Eight hours of sleep, eight hours of work and eight hours of play keep the therapist away.”
