April is National Stress Awareness Month.  In an attempt to raise awareness (who wants awareness RAISED to their stresses?  odd.) I have come up with ways to de-stress.  Please note:  The following ideas will have the best results when done in broad daylight with onlookers:

• Air guitar.  You gotta break bad on it.  Be sure you do this during the most highly inappropriate time.  Possibly while on the phone with a potential client.  However you do it, just be sure there are other people watching you.
• It has been proven that eating something “crunchy” helps to alleviate stress.  I recommend ice cubes during an employee meeting.  If it rids your stress, surely it will help the others.  Why not share the love?
• It has also been said that dancing and exercise help lift adrenaline thus releasing endorphin to lift the mood.  The most appropriate time to do this is on your lunch break.  Preferably while in the drive-thru.  Simply step out of your car and shake it like a polaroid picture.  Shake it. 
• Clean house in the nude while singing “Free Falling”.  Stressed while paying bills?  Stand up and strip.  It really is that simple.
• Eat suckers all day long and go around sticking your tongue out at complete strangers.  Ask, “what color is my tongue?”
• Buy multiple packs of bubble gum.  Have an office bubble blowing contest?  Give whoever wins, a pack of gum.  Then, proceed to hold your hand out and gather all of the chewed gum from your coworkers.  Roll it into a giant gum ball and place it neatly under your bosses desk.
• Wrap yourself in bubble wrap, legs together and then jump down the street.

What are things you do to alleviate stress?

Happy Stress Awareness Month!
