When the pressure heats up at work, so might your stress levels. While some stress can be motivating, large amounts — especially long term — can be detrimental to your health.

Reducing your stress levels is key to managing the pressure at work as well as in your home life. Taking steps to lower your stress by incorporating exercise and scheduling time for yourself are just some ways you can decrease stress’s impact, as well as increase your enjoyment of your time at work, even when things can seem overwhelming.

Below, seven members of Forbes Coaches Council provide a few practical strategies that the modern professional can easily incorporate into their life to reduce stress. Here’s what they suggest:

1. Find Time To Do Something You Enjoy

We don’t all have the same stressors. One thing that I find is helpful is to make sure you find time, at least every few days, to do something you enjoy — cooking, reading, running, whatever it is. For me it’s music. I love to swing dance, and when I’m starting to go down that rabbit hole of stress, I put on something I love to listen to and dance. – Grace Killelea, The GKC Group

2. Identify And Embrace Your Flaws

Embrace your flaws and do what makes you happy! I’ve learned that my flaws helped me become a better leader. And that you can’t fake it till you make it, as it relates to your happiness. Identify your flaws and match your strengths around your passion and true career identity. This practical strategy can reduce stress and promote a healthier, more fulfilled career life. – Mo Davis, Fresh Talent Sources Inc
