20 Quotes to Inspire Stress Relief

Summary: Keep these quotes close at hand to help you calm down before you get stressed out, or de-stress you when you do.

Most people in this day and age deal with the feeling of stress. According to the Oxford Dictionary, stress is “A state of mental or emotional strain or tension resulting from adverse or demanding circumstances.” The problem, however, is that many of us feel like we are in a state of stress almost all the time or at least once during our day. Do we really deal with such extreme circumstances every day? No, probably not.

The issue with stress is that we take whatever adversity or circumstances we’re facing and decide how they will mentally affect us. Yes, some situations are overwhelming beyond such a decision but, for the most part, you can choose whether or not you let something get to you. You can choose your attitude, how you react to others, and what really matters to you.

To help you both understand this concept as well as find a mantra or two that you can keep close at hand for the next time you feel “stressed,” here are 20 quotes that inspire stress relief.
