Wrapping up on this series of posts on the subject of stress management, I'd like to mention a few remaining common methods.
Some forms of stress are extreme and require medical help. But grief counseling by well-wishers can also help in cheering up a person. In the case of extremely stressful experiences like job loss, the death of a dear one, divorce, or a natural calamity such as earth quake, tsunami, or tornado our built-in stress release mechanisms kicks in. Contrary to old world beliefs, it's not really a weakness to cry or faint but a natural way by which the body-mind connection lends a helping hand to relieve stress. At times of intense grief, having a well wisher play the role of a psychologist can help the person experiencing the grief by letting them open the inner thoughts in their Astral body (mind). The pain is projected into the Gross body, driven by their Ego. Speaking out unloads the weight of the pain which gives relief from the stress.
There are a myriad ways to deflect the stress generating thoughts so that it doesn't snowball. Pick something that you enjoy doing like sport activities, exercising, socializing, community service, watching movies, a craft, etc. to divert the mind. This is preferable to choices like alcohol or drugs which can only provide temporary relief and lead to addictions.
We've already looked at how religious faith or spirituality can be a powerful method through prayer, meditation, chanting, etc.
Wearing a talisman recommended in an expert you trust is a popular method. When you wear a suitable gem, the energies from the gem is believed to help. Experts in this field can suggest a gem based on your the type of stress you'er going through. The gemologist's recommendation is usually based on some form of astrology, numerology, or palmistry. They also make recommendations how, when, and where the gem should be worn for best results. A diamond is worn for influences of affiliations or benefits of the planet Venus. Another example, to give relief from arthritis pain a red coral is often recommended. This too is a very complex and vast subject that are most rewarding when you work with experts. Great caution is needed to find a true expert.
The bottom line is, to find a way that best suits you to keep the mind away from thoughts causing stress by channeling the mind to alternate thoughts which gives relief. Do this repeatedly and happiness follows..
