The thing is, you can’t always control the stress involved in the work you do. What you can control is your personal wellbeing while you’re at work. Read on for easy, effective tips designed to cut your on-the-job stress way down.

1. Lay off the caffeine. Most of us consume far too much caffeine and don’t even know it. In the first hours of the morning or the middle of a long afternoon it is easy to turn to caffeine for a little pick-me-up. Your morning stop at Starbucks, those bland cups of the office brew—does this sound familiar?

Too much caffeine can make you nervous and significantly lower your concentration levels. Your ability to handle stress actually decreases, causing you to be less productive. Try to limit your intake to a few caffeinated beverages a day. Better yet, drink more water. You’ll feel more alert and sleep better at night.

2. Snack healthily throughout the day. The key word here is ‘healthily’. Sorry, but this means that a mid-morning bag of chips or a candy bar are not ideal choices. Any food laden with fat or sugar will give you a short-lived boost of energy, but a few hours later you’ll be longing for a nap.

On the other hand, nutritious snacks will give you a boost without the eventual crash. Try eating a piece of fruit, a handful of nuts or a small tub of yogurt a few times a day. These treats are easy to eat at your desk and will prevent cravings for fatty snacks.

3. Take your lunch outside of the office. More and more people are eating lunch in front of their computers, and it’s easy to see why. When we’re feeling overwhelmed, common sense tells us to spend every moment of the workday coping with what needs to be done.

You may, however, want to rethink this strategy. Taking a small break outside of the office will refresh and invigorate you, allowing you to devote your full attention to your work through the rest of the day. You don’t even need an entire hour to get the benefits—even 20 minutes away from your desk should do the trick.

4. Get up and walk around once in awhile. You don’t have to do strange looking stretches at your desk to get your blood flowing. Instead, simply make sure that you stand up and move around a little every hour or so. Something as simple as walking briskly from one end of the office to another can prevent you from becoming sluggish.

Simple, do not sweat the small stuff, because in the end, it really never mattered anyway.

Also make sure that you are not building yourself to become a couch potato and start jumping off from the couch and work on your body.

The Stress Symptoms

Almost always when you are being stressed, you will notice a tightening of your muscles, usually in the hands and arms, sometimes the legs and feet.
Your blood pressure will rise, and your skin temperature will as well. These are normal responses from your natural “fight or flight” reflex.
If you are a bit observant and watch yourself carefully, you can identify these stress responses by your body.
Short-Term Stress is Good. Long-Term Stress is Deadly
If the above stress responses occur because you are in some sort of danger, and you have to protect yourself (by fighting or fleeing), then the stress is good. However they must be controlled.
A good example is being in a long line at the airport, with a nasty airline employee greeting you after your turn finally comes. The employee can stress you to very high limits, and you need all your self-control.
You will see your stress symptoms appearing.
Your quick reaction is needed. You must assert yourself, and get the employee to do their job, and quickly, and politely.
Your fighting will be by mental means, and verbal delivery. This short-term stress was a good thing

It is also best for us to exercise. This is one of the most forgotten aspect of stress reduction. With exercise, one takes control over his own self and in the process, stress is also controlled.

While you may not be able to solve the biggest stressors in your life, you can do something about many of the smaller stressors that “nickel and dime you to death.” Here are some proven stress reducers you can implement in daily life to help:

* Get up 15 minutes earlier each morning. That gives you a little more time to eat something, run back to get something you forgot, or enjoy a cup of coffee before heading out the door. If you drive to work, a 15 or 20 minute head start may decrease some of the traffic you face, and make the commute less stressful.

* Prepare for mishaps. Make an extra copy of your house key and bury it in your neighbors’ yard; make a second copy of your car key and tape it under your coworker’s desk. Both may allow you to get home and inside the house if you loose your keys. If you do have to use them, pat yourself on the back for being smart.

* Don’t do something if you will have to lie about it afterwards. While this may seem obvious, the nagging guilt we feel often wears us down or makes us anxious about getting caught… Sure, it may be more time consuming to fax your resume to new job sites from Kinko’s, but you don’t have to worry about being caught.

* Do something healthy for yourself. That could mean taking the stairs once a day instead of the elevator, picking one day a week to have a salad for lunch, or eating fresh fruit instead of a candy bar. What’s the overall effect on your health? Maybe not much, but small steps lead to bigger ones, and doing something simple for your body is the best way to start.

* Write it down. There is an old Chinese proverb that goes, “The palest ink is better than the most retentive memory.” All those “Seven Secrets” tips are based on writing things down. Write down goals, errands, chores, due dates for projects and library books… Instead of just a “To Do” list, keep a “Have Done” list too. Move things over to that list after having completed them. At the end of the day, review how productive you were.

* Do something special on a whim. Buy flowers for your partner unexpectedly. Sneak a small greeting card that says “I love you” into your child’s lunch box. Bring donuts, bagels, or muffins to the office for others one morning. You get the picture. Someone else’s smile and “Thanks” can sometimes make a bad day better.
