I understand where you are coming from and I have found that small adjustments in my daily life help me manage stress and yes my crankiness better.

 

1. A study at the University College London reveals that drinking black tea has a calming effect. Accordingly this is due to the polyphenols and flavonoids it contains, so I now drink tea instead of coffee.

 

2. I listen to calming music like the one used for a Yoga class. Don't shrug it off as a University of Osaka study proves that people in a hospital waiting for a colonoscopy experienced less stress when soothing music was played.

 

3. According to research dark colored vegetables and fruits loaded with vitamin C helps your body deal with stress by lowering cortisol levels. When planning the family menu I incorporate as much of these as I can. 

 

4. If you have the budget a weekly massage helps reduce stress. In fact a study at the Emory universtiy department of psychiatry found that massage session's benefits last several days and not just for several hours.
