Stress Toys

Stress toys are effectively toys you can squeeze to relieve stress. They are also fidget toys seen below. Do they help you? I've tried them but they don't help me too much.

Stress toys can be helpful for managing anxiety and stress, providing a way to channel nervous energy and reduce tension. These toys stimulate the senses, which can help ground you in the present moment and alleviate feelings of overwhelm. Some popular stress toys include:

Fidget spinners: Help focus energy and improve concentration.
Fidget cubes: Offer a variety of buttons, switches, and dials for tactile stimulation.
Stress balls: Provide a calming sensation when squeezed, helping to release tension.
Putty or slime: Can be molded, squished, and stretched, offering sensory relaxation.
Tangle toys: Allow for twisting and turning, promoting relaxation through repetitive motions.

While stress toys can help in the moment, they work best as part of a broader approach to stress management, including deep breathing and exercise.
