Say “Yes” to Less-Stress Success

• You can turn a tennis ball into a stress ball by... well... just by squeezing it, I guess. Great job!

• Screaming at your boss and walking out of the office with your pants around your ankles will make you feel better for 30 seconds or so.

• Breathing exercises are a great way to reduce stress. Try this: breath out, then breath out again, then breath out again, one more time, out, out, out. Now when you wake up from having passed out, I’ll bet you feel much better.

• Some “experts” tout the benefits of ammoniatherapy in stress reduction, but smelling a rag dipped in ammonia just gives me a headache.

• Try a cup of chamomile tea while listening to classical music while getting a massage while having sex. Talk about relaxing!

• Giant pile of laundry got you feeling down? Do you own a can of lighter fluid and a box of matches?

• Sometimes all it takes to calm yourself down is taking a long walk down a quiet Mexican beach.
