At some point during your life, you are going to experience stress. Stress is a natural human reaction. When you find yourself frightened, worried, or under too many demands, stress is your body’s way of responding to the chemical and emotional changes caused by stress. So, what can you do when you are under stress?
Games are a great way to reduce stress and have fun while doing it. There are a number of stress reducer games you can play to calm your body and mind so that you are able to reduce the negative effects of stress on your life.
When you feel stressed, if you just take 30 minutes out of your day to play a game or do another fun activity, you can relieve the symptoms of your stress. The options for stress relief games are almost endless.
Video and online games are great stress reducers. When you are feeling the demands of your day and you need to take a few minutes to unwind, simply click on your computer and go to one of the many free online game sites. If you are at work when stressors invade your day, make sure that your company policy does not prohibit playing online games. Online game sites have a variety of games for all types (children, adults, word games, video games, popular game show type games) – you are sure to find something you love. By playing for approximately 30 minutes, you are able to unwind and thereby relieve stress.
Many computer program packages come with built-in games as well, so if you don’t have internet access (or your internet is down), you can still find games on your computer that will help you reduce stress. Some of the common games on most computers include Spider Solitaire, Solitaire, Hearts, and Minesweeper.
If you don’t have computer access, you have a host of other options for a stress reducer game. Grab the daily newspaper and look for the daily crossword or cryptogram puzzles. Or, if you are into Sudoku puzzles, you can find these in many daily newspapers as well. Puzzles not only help relieve stress, they also increase your brain function.

Another way to use games to relieve stress is to organize a family game night or a game night with friends. Invite some friends over and bring out the board games for a fun filled evening. By incorporating some fun games into your week, you are able to reduce stress as well as enjoy the company of friends and family.
If you have children, engage in some physical activity to help reduce stress. Being a parent can be a highly stressful occupation; therefore, if you can find some games that you can play with your children, you are not only reducing stress, but also promoting a healthier lifestyle for you and your children.
Stress is common. At some point in your life, you will experience stress. By using stress reducer games to help cope with the things causing your stress, you can take control of your life and use fun activities to improve your day.
