Take care of your body

Drink plenty of water, eat nutritious meals and maintain an active lifestyle. You and your body will thank you!

Get plenty of sleep

When we don’t get enough sleep, we can begin to feel irritable or anxious. Sleep helps to regulate chemicals in our brain, which are vital in managing our moods.

Manage stress

For many of us, stress is hard to avoid altogether, but we can learn the best ways to handle these times. When we have too much on our plate, it can definitely be overwhelming. Try making lists of everything you need to do and realize that it is achievable, even if you cannot finish everything in one day. Plus, marking things off your list is always fun.

Exercise

According to the Mayo Clinic, any form of exercise, from aerobics to yoga, can act as a stress reliever. If you’re not an athlete or even if you’re out of shape, you can still make a little exercise go a long way toward stress management.

Do things you enjoy

If we don’t give ourselves time for things that we love doing, we can get upset after awhile. Try to set aside some time each day to enjoy yourself. If you want to find a new hobby, you can always find something with a little online research.

Switch up your routine

We love routines as they help with productivity and efficiency, but every once in awhile, spice it up. Tweak your neighborhood walking route, change up your office decor or plan out the vacation you want to take next.

Connect with others

Everyone needs a good support network. Put in the effort to maintain friendships that you want to keep and talk to others when you can. Make plans with your family or friends or even search for new activities that allow you to be sociable.

Choose the right supplements

I have personally used various supplements over the years, but this new formula is my new favorite! AXIS Nutrition™ Mental Emotional Balance is a gluten-free, vegan dietary supplement offering select ingredients that synergistically help to support a healthy nervous system and support mental focus in times of stress. Our state of mind is affected by hormones and the different amounts of neurotransmitters that excite, modulate, or inhibit chemical messages from one neuron to another. Together these hormones work to regulate or carry out a specific function of the central nervous system. Hormone fluctuations can impact the behavior and levels of the neurotransmitters located within the brain. Overall, maintaining a healthy balance of neurotransmitters in the brain enables our bodies to regulate mood and attention. Without a healthy balance of our neurotransmitters, we may find it more difficult to support our emotional wellbeing in stressful situations. AXIS Nutrition™ Mental Emotional Balance is formulated with 30 mg of saffron, extracted from the stigmas of the lavish crocus sativus flower, grouped with 200 mg of magnesium and 29 mg of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). These products, in conjunction with healthy lifestyle habits, can help support emotional wellness and mental clarity in times of stress.
