& "Work is where I relieve stress," no one ever said. Whether you are passionate about your job or spend all your spare time on your resume in the hope of a more environmentally friendly job, there are no two ways: work can bring stress. What about the office? Even with adequate snacks, they don't really radiate a sense of tranquility.

6. Choosing a smart lunch is as important as choosing the right breakfast to relieve work stress. Choosing lunch is also important. Ideally, you should avoid eating foods that are too heavy and make you feel sluggish, and choose foods that give you energy and endurance (think of lean protein and fiber).

Dietitian Cynthia Sass of New York and Los Angeles said that a salad or Buddha bowl made of lots of green vegetables and other vegetables, a lean protein (such as wild salmon, chicken breast or beans), a small spoonful of quinoa and a small drop of Tahini Sauce is a great working lunch. & The other option is a tortilla salad (don't eat fried eggshells!). With green vegetables, roast vegetables, Pico de Gallo, a spoonful of black beans and half avocado or a quarter cup of avocado sauce; or vegetable soup with beans, such as white beans and kale.

Putting a small essential oil diffuser on your desk can be very helpful once the terrible 4 p.m. plunge comes back. & Dr. Kac Young, author of The Art of Essential Oil Therapy, said that in order to replenish energy in the afternoon, you could try to use a mixture of mint and lemon in a diffuser or dilute it with carrier oil and apply it between the temple, wrist and clavicle. Young is also a certified meditation teacher, and he recommends taking deep breaths when work stress starts to rise. & She said, first inhale slowly for a long time with the nose, first fill the lower lung, and then fill the upper lung. & Quote: Hold your breath for three, then exhale slowly through your pursed lips while relaxing the muscles of your face, chin, shoulder and abdomen. & quot;

8. Know how to get rid of this

At some point in your career, colleagues or superiors inevitably make rude comments or make ineffective criticisms - be prepared. & In Miguel Ruiz's four agreements, he said, don't take anything personally. Everything others do is not because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality... & quot; Douglas said: That's all right.

If someone makes harsh criticism or rude comments at work, remember that it's not so much because you, but because they need to put aside negative emotions, perhaps because of their bad days. When people feel secure about themselves, they spend time respecting others rather than criticizing and belittling others. If you keep this fact in mind, you will be able to quickly get rid of salty comments and return to the task at hand. & quot;
