Playing calm music has a positive effect on the brain and body, can lower blood pressure, and reduce cortisol, a hormone linked to stress.

When you’re feeling stressed, take a break and talk to someone you can confide in about your problems sometimes. Sometimes all you need is a reassuring voice, even for a minute, can put everything in perspective.
Talk yourself through it:

Talking calmly to yourself can be the next best thing. Don’t worry about seeming crazy — just tell yourself why you're stressed out, what you need to do in completing the task at hand, and most importantly, that everything will be okay.

Instead of coffee or energy drinks, try green tea. A large dose of caffeine causes a short-term spike in blood pressure.
