The major reason for stress building up is because we carry over the previous day's worries to the present day. You end up having high stress levels when you accumulate stress. What you need to do is leave behind all the concerns from the previous days and entirely focus on today.
Following are 3 tips which would help you to reduce your stress:
1) You have to decide that you'll release the thought about the concerns that you had the previous day. Try to think about this moment and how you would be able to live it. Slowly take in a deep breath and release each worry gradually.
Once you begin doing this you will feel each concern, each and every problem and each unresolved moment slowly dissolving away. You could even deal with them later if you wish to or need to.
Go to a peaceful place in your mind, go deep inside a place where you feel that you are at peace and take pleasure in the feeling of being one. Use this time to calm yourself and get rid of all your concerns and regrets.
2) The next thing that you have to do is think of one simple task like taking a stroll in the park, raking the leaves and do that one simple thing. Your mind would be at peace all this time and you'll be in your own special place.
