Physical activity, any physical activity, is going to help get your body to calm down pretty quickly. This should make perfect sense if you have been paying attention at all throughout this discussion. Stress is the brain’s reaction to a perception of threat and it gets the body ready for action, so give it some action. Technically speaking, physical activity is what stress is designed for. All that fighting and fleeing the body is preparing for? Yeah, that’s exercise. Exercise is the absolute best way to quickly and effectively reduce stress.
