只需五分鐘工作壓力全消除（雙語）

　　Stressful situations are sometimes inevitable. Each of us perceives challenges in their own way and reaction to them also varies. How stressful our life is depends not only on us. Other people influence it as well, and this is something we cannot change. Or can we?

　　壓力大的情況有時在所難免。我們每個人都有自己看待挑戰(zhàn)的方式，并且對挑戰(zhàn)做出的反應也不盡相同。我們生活的壓力有多大不僅取決于自己，也取決于他人的影響，而且這是我們無法改變的事情。或者，我們能改變?

　　What if we do not try to change others (which is a fairly hopeless task), but rather try and change our attitude to stress and tension that we often experience at work?

只需五分鐘 工作壓力全消除

　　要是我們不去改變他人(這是相當無望的任務)，而是改變我們對待工作中壓力和緊張的態(tài)度呢?

　　1. Stretching

　　1.拉伸

　　Stretching releases muscle tension that accumulates in your back, shoulders, and neck during the day. 拉伸能釋放一天中積壓在你背部，肩膀和頸椎的肌肉緊張。

　　2. Do a short workout

　　2.做簡短的鍛煉

　　Even when your day is extremely busy, do your best and set aside at least 5-10 minutes to do some exercise. There are plenty of exercises you can practice that do not require any special equipment: yoga, oxycise or simple squats – you can pick any kind of workout to your liking. Physical activity will boost your energy level and help you calm down. Working out is beneficial for both your body and mind. 即使你這一天忙得團團轉，盡可能留出至少5-10分鐘做些運動。你可以做很多并不需要特殊器材的鍛煉：瑜伽，有氧運動或簡單的蹲起—你可以根據(jù)自己的喜好選擇任何一種運動。體力活動會提高你的能量水平，并讓你平靜下來。鍛煉有利于身心。

　　3. Drink a cup of herbal tea

　　3. 喝一杯花茶

　　Herbs work miracles. Some of them, such as chamomile and peppermint, are a powerful tool helping to fight stress and anxiety. NASA scientists have recently carried out research into the effect of herbs and found out that peppermint scent decreases tiredness by 20% and reduces frustration by 25%. Make a smarter choice and, while at work, drink herbal tea instead of coffee. 草本植物具有神奇功效。其中，如甘菊和薄荷，是對抗壓力和焦慮的強大工具。美國航空航天局的科學家們最近已研究了草本植物的效果，并發(fā)現(xiàn)，薄荷的香味能減輕20%的疲勞以及25%的郁悶。做一個更智慧的選擇，在工作中，請喝花茶，而非咖啡。

　　4. Take a stroll

　　4. 閑逛

　　Once you find yourself in a different surrounding, you will feel much better. It’s great if your office is located in an environmentally clean place, for example, near a city park. You can then refresh yourself and relax a bit before you dive back into your working routine. If your office is situated in a busy city center, then you can spend your lunch break in a sidewalk cafe. Order your favorite drink and distract yourself by watching people go by. 一旦處在不同的環(huán)境中，你會感覺好很多。如果你的辦公室位于環(huán)境清新的地方，比如位于某城市公園的附近，那簡直太好了!你可以在扎入日常工作前清頭目并放松。如果你的辦公室坐落在繁華的市中心，那么你可以在路邊的咖啡館午休。點一份你最愛的飲品，觀察來來往往的人群，以分散注意力。

　　5. Have a chat

　　5. 聊會天

　　Call someone who you know can understand and support you when you feel stressed. Avoid those who you think can increase anxiety and stress. A study shows that communication with close people, such as your friends or parents, produces oxytocin in your body—the hormone that is needed to successfully fight tension and stress. 當你感到鴨梨山大的時候，打電話給你覺得能夠理解和支持你的人，避開那些會增加焦慮和壓力的人。一項研究表明與親密的人，比如你的朋友或父母溝通，會產(chǎn)生體內(nèi)的催產(chǎn)素—成功戰(zhàn)勝緊張和壓力所需的荷爾蒙。
