If stress is one of your triggers for nail biting, I've got some more ideas for decreasing stress in your life.
1. Eat Healthy. Many foods actually have effects on our emotions. Some will increase calm and others will increase your stress level.
Foods high and sugar will make life a little more stressful. While protein rich foods like turkey will increase the feeling of calm. Healthy eating is important. Setting up a healthy diet can increase optimal health for each one of us. A healthy diet can help even out the up and down spiral of stress in your life.
2. Stay in touch with friends. Have at least one friend you can call to vent when life gets crazy. Make sure you choose a friend that is willing to listen and not "tell" you what to do and judge you.
3. Create the Zen mindset. Make an island of calm in your life. This place is somewhere you can mentally escape. This way you can take a break and travel in your mind. It's a great place to travel to when everything in your life is piling up.
4. Laugh. Sometimes when stress gets high we forget to laugh. Grab a funny movie at the video store. Google some funny jokes or videos. Steer clean of the gloom and doom.
If stress is a trigger for your nail biting habit, then try a couple of these stress cutting tips.
It's all about changing the nail biting habit,
