Get plenty of sleep
Aim to get plenty of sleep each night, which can help you deal with stress. Most people need about seven to nine hours of sleep each night. Have a consistent bedtime ritual. Plan to go to bed and get up at the same time every day. And remove tablets and cellphones from your bedroom, as the light from these devices can make sleep more difficult.
