What I do when it all gets to be too much

You can fill in your own blanks about what "too much" is, but for me, right now, it's all of the anger/fighting/terrorism, as well as the way people treat each other "online", behind their anonymous names. I'm not going to talk about any of that (this is a safe space :)), but it has been getting me down, & making me feel helpless. So, here's my approach to how I handle situations like this.

1. I go outside. Sunshine is good for the soul.
2. I work out. The endorphins are also good for you. Bonus points if you can combine #1 & #2. Also, at least one day a week, I try to work out until exhaustion, vs just a quick go at it.
3. I talk to my friends. Either via text, email, or even better. . . in person.
4. I plan a fun event. Right now, I have two exciting things on the calendar. My family relay is next weekend, & then I have a trip to Hawaii in October with M. Sometimes I just need a few minutes to do some fun planning about my events, or just think about the activities.
5. I cook. Or bake. And get organized. A feeling of helplessness on world events pushes me to want to have more control over our family life. This week, that's translated into: making chicken broth, two batches of granola bars, & breakfast burritos. And, the day is young. :-) I'll report back on any big recipe wins.
6. I do yoga, or deep breathing.
7. Probably obvious, but I don't touch any social media or news. I take a media break. 
8. I try to eat well (lots for fresh fruit/vegetables). Combined with a glass or two of wine on weekend evenings.
9. I do something kind for others, as often as the opportunities present themselves. Small things are great! Not everything has to be a huge, meaningful thing. A few examples from the past few weeks: made a conscious effort to smile at strangers, visited a neighbor who lost her spouse, offered a ride to my friend's son when I knew her schedule was crazy, donated extra school supplies when I found bonus stuff in our house, brought in extra yard produce to my coworkers, and treated my nephew to concert tickets that he really wanted but couldn't afford for his birthday. Doing these things remind me of how it feels to help/give, and also hopefully gives someone else just a small positive boost in their day as well.
10. I hug my kids. And husband. Even when they are annoying me, frustrating me, and I feel stressed out by the world. I'm doing my best to raise kind & thoughtful kiddos. Hugs are never out of place, and remind them that we love them. Even when they've spilled all of their breakfast on the floor while I'm my way out the door. ;-) 

I'd love to hear how you deal with everything, and your methods for dealing with stressful situations. Please share!
