What is the best way of dealing with stress

[the maze runner]

I'm facing terrible stress at work and I want to know what is the best non memory or cognition affecting way of dealing with the stress.

I find that yelling obscenities at goats tends to help. Sounds cruel but I do it in Spanish so they won't be offended. Calling a goat a pendejo feels so good.

Or meditation.

Do you have a preferred form of exercise?

Being in nature

when stress is really bad, sleeping becomes my escape. you have to watch that you dont start oversleeping, but having a nap can allow you to hit pause for a bit. or even just hiding under a blanket.

therapy/talking to someone who is willing to listen can be a good release.

also agree that nature helps. just sitting outside and listening to the wind is calming for me. 

cooking was helpful for me when i was under a lot of stress in school. doing something with your hands and creating something tangible from nothing can be really soothing and satisfying. if it's cold where live right now, making something heavier like stew or soup can offer some comfort.

listening to loud noisy music while commuting to/from work has also given me some relief.
