Everyone leads a difficult life in one way or the other. Some of us are more relaxed than others because we find a way to release our tensions and the stress that we collect on a daily basis. For self-care and better health, this is a very necessary practice that everyone needs to follow. There is no common rule on what you can use to reduce your stress because everyone has to find their own way to find peace and calm their nerves.
Some people use exercise or the gym as their release. They go to the gym every other day and spend a long time on workouts, listening to music and refreshing their minds to get back to the struggles of daily life. Some choose to use music as their release. They enjoy going for long hikes or even just sitting by the beach or with any other good view. I listen to the most soothing and relaxing music according to their taste and that helps them refresh their mind in the same way that gym enthusiasts refresh theirs. In college, there is a huge culture of having weekly parties, raves, or a night of clubbing where you can go dancing your troubles away.
It is important to find a good form of release because some people even choose negative ways to release their stress such as drugs or excessive use of alcohol.
Unless your particular way of release is causing you health problems, it does not matter what form of release you pick as long as you have the regular practice of de-stressing yourself and preparing for the next day with a clear mind. in technical terms, these stress relievers are called coping mechanisms. If you feel like you bottle up your feelings and continue to take on stress regularly then it might be time for you to explore some good coping mechanisms.
