Daydream to Reduce Stress
Many experts agree that visualization techniques—including meditation and even daydreaming—can lead to reduced stress and anxiety.

According to Mental Health America (formerly known as the National Mental Health Association), spending as little as 10 to 20 minutes meditating can relieve even chronic stress—and enhance your ability to deal with stress. MHA also reports that 62 percent of Americans employ meditation for stress relief.

So the next time you find yourself stressed out, use your imagination to daydream your stress away.
