If you have been feeling uptight and stressed<\/strong> the last month, you\u2019re not alone. The American Psychological Association reported<\/a> that 75% of Americans have symptoms of stress monthly<\/strong>, and we can only imagine what the global average<\/strong> must be. That said, there are ways of controlling and reducing stress<\/strong> that are both simple and affordable<\/strong> to fit into your daily life.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chewing Gum<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"girl<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Beyond giving your mouth a fresh flavor<\/strong>, chewing gum <\/strong>can actually help to improve your mood<\/strong> and reduce cortisol levels.<\/strong> Cortisol<\/strong> is known as the \u201cstress hormone,\u201d<\/strong> so when this is lowered <\/strong>you will feel all around less stress in your life.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Filling Your Room With Plants<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"an<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Spending time in the outdoors<\/strong> can make you feel instantly refreshed and calmer. <\/strong>To achieve these same benefits <\/strong>while inside of your home <\/strong>or office space<\/strong>, you can fill your room with plants,<\/strong> which has been proven to lower blood pressure<\/strong> associated with high stress environments<\/strong>. It also has been shown to help with your productivity<\/strong> and breathing. Plus, your room<\/strong> will be a sight for sore eyes<\/strong> with beautiful plants as decorations!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biting Down On Some Chocolate<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"several<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Chocolate<\/strong> doesn’t just taste amazing<\/strong>– it actually makes us FEEL better too! Dark chocolate<\/strong> in particular has been proven<\/a> to reduce stress levels <\/strong>when eaten daily<\/strong>, even in small amounts. Time to give yourself <\/strong>the sweet treat <\/strong>you deserve! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mowing The Lawn<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"a<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is probably the most shocking <\/strong>on the list… But a chemical<\/strong> that is released from the grass <\/strong>after it is freshly cut <\/strong>has the ability to make people feel happier and calmer<\/strong>. Some research<\/a> found it even helps to reduce mental deterioration!<\/strong> You will also feel less stressed <\/strong>thanks to completing another chore.<\/strong> Another check off the to-do list<\/a>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sipping On Some Tea<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"a<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The British<\/strong> may be on to something with their love of tea. <\/strong>Scientists\u00a0found<\/a>\u00a0that drinking just one cup of tea<\/strong> can help to lower one’s stress by up to 25 percent! <\/strong>The best tea <\/strong>for the job is green tea<\/strong>, which has the stress-reducing ingredient<\/strong> L-theanine<\/em>. Wind down right before bed with a cup <\/strong>and you are sure to sleep soundly. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
