Positive Recommendations

What positive recommendations would you make to a friend, patient or family member to cope with stress in a positive manner?
Some positive recommendations I would suggest to a friend, patient, or family member for coping with stress in a positive matter is to exercise and eat properly. Exercise does not have to be really intense. Walking, running, yoga, and weights can be sufficient by reducing one’s stress. Eating properly can also play a huge factor. It is important to be getting the nutrients one needs. It is hard at first, just like any task, but once it becomes a routine it gets slightly easier.

What is an example of reducing stress in positive ways and an example of coping with stress in a negative manner? Explain you answer.
An example

of reducing stress in positive ways would be to exercise and eating properly as state above. There are so many benefits these positive stress reducers. An example of coping with stress in a negative manner is going out and drinking to where someone blacks out. It is good to go out with friends, but it is not okay when someone exceeds their limit of drinks.

How can you help guide and teach them ways to react to stress using positive coping skills? Provide tools to help the individual.
I can help guide and teach people on ways to react to stress using positive coping skills by being optimistic. If anything that stresses a person out, try to find a way to make it better whether it is from family, sports, or school. People can take steps by trying to figure out what is causing the problem. Often times people ignore the situation rather than to fix the situation. There are many positive coping skills, but it depends on the individual to be able to recognize the problem and then go from there to change it. People often do not want to seek help because they think they do not need it. It is important to educate others that seeking for help is okay. These are just two examples of positives stress reducers. There are so many more options for one to reduce stress. It is up to the person’s interest to decide how they want to handle and cope with stress.
