Psychologists have developed a number of relaxation techniques that can help reduce stress on the job. Here's one: take a breather from stress by sitting in a comfortable position. Close your eyes. Deeply relax all your muscles and keep them relaxed. Breathe through your nose. Become aware of your breathing and as you breathe out, repeat a word (such as “one”) silently to yourself. Focus on one item or a pleasurable place or event.
