The Scandinavians have de-stressing down to a science \u2014 and an art. It\u2019s no wonder that they\u2019re the happiest people on Earth.

How to Actually Get More Sleep<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re really stressed out, sometimes the best solution is to get some sound sleep. All the stages of snoozing, including non-REM and REM, are important for cognitive function, preserving memories and refreshing your brain. In fact, research shows that poor sleep can make people even more stressed, unhappy and angry. If you\u2019re already in the throes of losing zzz\u2019s every night, squeezing in a 10-minute nap can also help.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

How to Bring Zen Into Your Home<\/h3>\n

According to many feng shui experts, your home is a direct reflection of your life. So if you\u2019re feeling extremely stressed and beyond exhausted, don\u2019t let it continue to pile on. Look around your home for some fixes. Remove the clutter (like those T-shirts and tote bags you\u2019ll never use) and fill your drawers with only the things you actually need. Above all else, decorate your space with what makes you happy and generates positive energy. What you see is what you get.<\/p>\n
