You don't always have control over your environment when you are feeling stressed, but if you do, take advantage of it. If you're in your car or somewhere else near a CD or MP3 player, put on the most soothing song you can think of. It might be good to keep a playlist of the soothing songs you enjoy, just for such an occasion. Then let yourself get lost in the music if even only for a minute or two.
Music has HUGE effects on how people feel, and you can help relax yourself by choosing quiet, soothing music.
