Support From People

1. Share your thoughts and feelings with a person you trust, and you'll certainly feel better.

2. Make a call right now.

3. Or look around. Are there people you can hug? If so, do so. Give a hug for 3 deep breaths and smile to this person.

Bonus tip: try a"six-second kiss" with your partner to let your mind de-stress and lift your spirits.
