Eat a healthy diet

Some stress is caused by a poor diet or not eating well. Focus on eating nutrient-dense foods high in healthy fats, proteins, vital minerals, and essential vitamins. It helps boost your mood and energy. Foods that boost mood include nuts, salmon, dairy products, vegetables, fruits, turkey, and seeds. 

Eat fewer carbohydrates and sugars when going to bed to lower your energy and blood sugar levels. Late-night fasting and cutting out snacking before bed is healthy and lowers anxiety. 

Manage your stress using the above healthy ways. However, address the root causes of your stress to enjoy long-term results. Meditation and exercising are common stress relievers. 

Most women prefer yoga while some men find vaping marijuana to be relaxing and curbs their anxiety. Living in a cycle of stress is not sustainable. Pick ideas that work for you and enjoy a happy and stress-free life.
