<human>:  How can I use mindfulness as a way of managing my stress?
<bot>: Mindfulness can be used as a way of managing stress by engaging in techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, and muscle relaxation. It is important to set aside time each day to focus on being mindful and aware of the present moment. It can be helpful to practice paying attention to your body and noting any physical tension that may be present. Taking a few moments to focus on your breathing, bringing your awareness to the rise and fall of your chest, can be a great way to calm down and relax. Mindfulness can also be used to practice acceptance and letting go of any stress-inducing thoughts. By being mindful and non-judgmental of your thoughts and feelings, you can take steps to let go of unhelpful thinking that can lead to increased stress.
