Finals! Holidays! Stress!

With the stress of finals and the holidays quickly approaching we are all feeling a little stressed to say the least. I'm always very interested to hear what kind of coping mechanisms people use in order to combat the stress associated with this time of year. It is important to have some stress relievers in your arsenal to avoid going off the rails mentally or nutritionally.  My top three stress relievers look something like this.

1. Take a nap.
2. Turn all electronics off (for a little while anyway.)
3. Go to the gym.

What are some of your favorite or most effective ways of beating the holiday stress?
