1- Try the "shift-and-persist" approach. It's no secret that living in poverty is stressful. Studies have shown that people living in poverty deal with higher levels of stress, but have fewer resources to fight it. One method, known as the "shift and persist" method, may help you deal with stress.

  • The shift-and-persist method of dealing with stress is a way to examine your stressors and find ways to cope with them. Rather than trying to get rid of the stressor, accept your situation and adjust your outlook.
  • The key to making shift-and-persist work is to keep working towards future goals. Don't become resigned to the situation you are in, and don't give up.
  • Practice self-affirmation. Recognize that you have value and don't let poverty get in the way of your feeling of self-worth. Think of times in the past when you were successful. Remind yourself daily that you have what it takes to solve your problems.

 

2- Follow a healthy diet. Living in poverty is often associated with a poor diet and unhealthy habits. Processed foods are inexpensive, but contribute to poor health.

  • Find foods you can use in multiple meals. By buying a select few staple ingredients, you can ensure that you're always able to make a meal. Keep things like flour, spices, garlic, and lemons on hand.
  • If you can, buy items in bulk to save money. You may not always be able to afford to stock up on certain pantry items, but when you can, it's worth it. Try setting aside a little money each month for more expensive pantry items.


3- Find time to exercise. Along with a proper diet, exercise is one of the best ways to defend your body from stress. You may not have the resources to join a gym, but you can still find ways to stay active at home.

  • Go for walks. If you have a pet or kids, this is a great activity. Walking is a good way to increase your heart rate, not to mention get out of the house. If you're stressed about something, take a walk to clear your head. You can also use this opportunity to catch up with your family members.
  • Try to spend at least 30 minutes a day doing some kind of physical activity. Jog in place while you watch TV. Do push-ups or sit-ups during commercials. You don't have to spend a solid 30 minutes exercising. You can split it up into two 15 minute segments if you need to.
