T-143 : Stressed Desserts?

We talked as a family about too much stress in our lives recently.  While it's common to quote the phrase at right, that's a quick-fix mentality.  I'm not opposed to some sweets now and again but here's some tips for how we can handle racked nerves on a more long-term basis with fairly simple diet and exercise tweaks:

1. Oranges
2. Sweet Potatoes
3. Dried Apricots
4. Almonds, Pistachios & Walnuts
5. Turkey
6. Spinach
7. Salmon
8. Avocados
9. Green Vegetables

More stress-busting tips: 

• - Exercise regularly 
• - Eat small meals throughout the day, which will keep your blood sugar stable (when blood sugar is low, mental, physical, and emotional energy decreases, and stress increases).

I wouldn't advocate eating them all, especially if you think they're nasty (like dried apricots)!  But a little here and a little there might go a long way toward peaceful nirvana!  What other tips help you?
