Stress is very present in our lives nowadays, and each one of us has own ways to cope.
But did you know that your zodiac sign plays a huge role in how you handle stress?
Aries
Aries are very energetic and active. Aside from that, they’re highly independent and loves challenges. However, due to their high energy, they tend to overexert themselves often and when this happens, they get really stressed out, irritable, and in some cases, aggressive.
This is why you need to know how to handle your stress well. An effective way to help the rams relax is to spend some alone time.
Physical activities such as walking, running, and hiking, can also help relieve stress for an Aries.
Taurus
Face it, bulls—you hate change. However, when you’re stressed out it’s usually because of a challenge that requires change for you to overcome it. What you don’t like about change is that it makes you feel insecure. You love to maintain things and you thrive on consistency, stability, and material security.
Therefore, when you’re faced with stress, you gather resources and resort to a routine. This makes it difficult for you to cope with anxiety, stress, and failure.
The best way to deal with stress is to release tension through meditation. Why don’t you also immerse yourself in activities that delight the senses, such as cooking or working with your hands?
Gemini
You hate boring and you don’t like getting stuck in a routine. Geminis think a lot and they do a lot of talking as well. You can easily become “out of it” when you’re stressed out. The good news is, the twins are highly adaptable, which means that you will look for ways to deal with the challenges that come your way.
Despite that, a good way to de-stress is to write down your thoughts and feelings. This way, you create order in your mind, which will help you relieve stress.
Cancer
Cancers are very emotional and sensitive, The crab is also known to be very vulnerable. When hurt, you tend to get defensive and retreat instead of expressing your feelings.
What stresses Cancers the most is when they don’t feel safe and secure. When a cancer is stressed, it usually leads to digestive problems.
Therefore, the best way to relieve stress is to spend time with the family, practice meditation, or you can also help someone out. You love nurturing people and you feel good about yourself when you get to spread love.
Leo
The brave lion is known to be very generous, social, and communicative. However, when stressed, there’s bound to be a lot of drama.
Still, Leos are a fixed sign, which means that for them, the show must go on. But that doesn’t mean that you should just let stress simmer in the background and blow unexpectedly and catch you off-guard.
The best way to de-stress is to be less subjective. Another great way to de-stress is to invite some of your closest friends over and have fun with them.
Virgo
Virgos are practical, analytical, and perfectionists. Count on them to have an eye for the smallest detail. What stresses Virgos the most is that their mind is working 24/7. They’re the masters of overthinking, and this always put them under a lot of stress.
A great way to de-stress is to put your analytical skills to good use. Try crossword puzzles, or perhaps, do some yoga, deep breathing techniques, and meditation.
Libra
Libras are social and they like things to always be balanced. When things aren’t balanced, Libras feel stressed. Air signs tend to discuss things more instead of taking action, so focus on the best-case scenario and deal with the challenge.
A great way for a Libra to de-stress is to be around people — hang out with your friends, indulge in your favorite things, or read a good book.
Scorpio
Scorpios are known to be very private and secretive. Most of the time, they keep their feelings well-hidden. But don’t let that fool you—Scorpios are actually sensitive and they do feel things deeply. That said, their sensitivity can sometimes be the reason for their stress.
A good way to ease the stress is to take a break, go for a drive, and just listen to your favorite music. It’s a great way to fight the stress and recharge your energies.
Sagittarius
Known for their adventurous and energetic personalities, Sagittarius likes moving around. But when stressed, you become scattered, and, well, unreliable.
So, when you feel like the stress is getting too much, stop, and go for an intense workout. Spend quality time with people that you love!.
Capricorn
Capricorns are disciplined, ambitious, and hard-working. What makes them stressed out is when they have nothing to do. That’s because their answer to most things is to work more, seek control, or take more responsibility.
The sign of the goat tends to have experience frequent low moods. So, when stressed out, you’ll find yourself more melancholic. A great way to de-stress is to do something that will allow you to unwind—it could be as simple as folding the laundry or writing to-do lists.
Aquarius
Aquarius are known to be intelligent, creative, and artistic. When stressed, Aquarius will procrastinate and become more emotionally-detached.
A great way to relieve stress is to do some mental exercises. Immerse yourself in a fun board game or trivia with your friends.
Pisces
Pisceans are likely to be sensitive, artistic, and imaginative. They’re known to live in their own world, and most of the time, this can be their response to stressful situations.
A great way to relieve stress is to put your thoughts on paper and communicate with other people every day. Try meditation, writing, or daydreaming.
