Stress Resets, the Ultimate Mental Health Hack | Jenny Taitz | TED (Level 1)

Stress happens to everyone. We can make it worse, but we can also fix it fast. You do not need a lot of time. You just need to change your actions. A doctor named Jenny Taitz shares three simple tricks to stop stress. First, play with your bad thoughts. Do not believe every bad thought you have. You can even sing your bad thoughts to a happy song. Second, try a small smile. Smiling tells your brain to be happy. It helps your body feel calm. Third, do the opposite of how you feel. If you are angry and want to yell, do something nice instead. You can also make a special box with happy pictures and music to help you feel better. Finally, remember to STOP. Slow down, think, look, and then act. You have the power to control your stress.
