The millions of thing we’ve got going on can leave us all feeling like big balls of stress – and that can wreak serious havoc on our health.

But you don’t need to turn your life inside out to beat the effects of stress.

These quick and easy natural solutions can help you stay mellow in a crazy world.

Have a cuppa
Black tea has been shown to have an effect on stress hormone levels in the body. Tea contains catechins, polyphenols, flavonoids and amino acids that affect your brain’s neurotransmitters and ultimately reduce blood levels of the stress hormone cortisol.

Go nuts
Next time you feel a bit cracked up, forgo the junk food and snack on some nuts instead. Nuts are typically high in tryptophan and magnesium, two key nutrients that support serotonin production. And almonds are especially high in stress-busting B vitamins, zinc, vitamin E and antioxidants.

Rub your ears
According to Ayurveda, India’s 5,000-year-old ‘science of life,’ there are ‘marma’ points – like acupuncture points – in the ears that correspond to the various parts of the body.  Rub the circumference of each ear, right hand on right ear and left hand on left ear, to instantly ease tension.

Take a sniff
Aromatherapy has calming effects that can tame the tension in no time. Proven stress-reducing aromas include lavender, lemon balm, chamomile and geranium. Place a few drops of essential oils on cotton balls and have a sniff of the lovely fragrance.

Strike a pose
When we get stressed, we tend to tense up and cave our chest in. Try folding your hands as if in prayer behind your back, then pulling your shoulders back, tilting your head back and breathing deeply.

Harry Styles is constantly surrounded by romance rumours and the latest seems to be around him and his good friend, Lou Teasdale.

Apparently Lou has split from her long term boyfriend and reports are suggesting that her and Harry have gotten a lot closer as a result.

“They do everything together. They’re very close and their friends overlap. Harry’s not got a lot of people he can trust and the lines could easily blur. Everyone that knows them has speculated that Harry’s in love with Lou, but he’s as confused about his feelings as anyone.”

However, there could be some truth behind the rumours as Lou is currently with the One Direction boys on their Where We Are tour.

But despite the apparent feelings the two have for another, Harry doesn’t plan on acting on them anytime soon.

“There’s a chance Lou and Tom will sort things out, but Harry’s supporting Lou for now. They’re having big heart- to-hearts all the time. Lou’s devastated and her priority is Lux, but she’s grateful to have Harry in her life – he’s good at cheering her up,”

Hmmm, we wonder what Kendall would think of these latest rumours?

It’s exactly a week, since the shocking footage of Solange attacking Jay-Z in an elevator was released.

But it seems that Beyonce, Solange and Jay-Z are more determined than ever to put last week’s behind them by displaying a united front, through Instagram snaps anyway.

Solange, Beyonce and Jay-Z made an public appearance together on Saturday. This was the first time all three met up, since the release of the elevator footage a week ago.

Beyonce posted several pictures of the happy reunion on her Instagram account today.

The pictures showed Solange, Jay-Z and Beyonce all posing happily together.

While we may never know what happened in that elevator, at least we know that all three have put it behind them.

London is one of the most amazing capitals in the world and because it is so close it is a pretty popular place for a weekend away.

However, it is big and there is a lot to do, so if you’re only heading for three days you may want to plan what you want to do.

Day 1
Get on a Hop On Hop Off sight-seeing tour. It is the best way to see as much of London as possible and if you sit on top you will get a bird’s eye view of the whole city. Hop off at Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Tower of London and Buckingham Palace.

Day 2
Day two is dedicated to shopping. Head to Harrod’s, Oxford Circus and Piccadilly Circus. Camden Markets are open every day and are a must-see, even if you are not planning on buying anything.  When you are all shopped out, pop into the British Museum  and have a stroll along the Southbank of the Thames. Don’t forget to have a go on the London Eye.

Day 3
You’ll be pretty tired today so head to Hyde Park and Regent’s Park and grab some lunch before heading to a show on the West End.

Sources have revealed that Cressida Bonas and Prince Harry had a secret meeting yesterday to discuss their two year relationship.

It’s almost been a month since the couple split, but according to recent reports both Cressida and Harry are now keen on a reunion.

“They have been in constant touch since they broke up and she has now met up with him. It’s all very amicable and no one is ruling out that they will get back together, but Cressida hasn’t made her mind up and the ball is really in her court.”

Well, whether the rumours are true or not, we’re wondering how Cressida will react to Harry’s recent behaviour at his friend’s wedding in Memphis.

Emilia Clarke and Nicholas Hoult are set to star in a new movie about criminal couple Bonnie and Clyde.

The X-Men star and the Game of Thrones actress will star in Go Down Together, a movie about the iconic Depression-era lovers and outlaws.

This isn’t the first time that Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow have had a big-screen outing, as the charismatic Warren Beatty and the stunning Faye Dunaway played them in 1967.

The upcoming movie is based on Jeff Guinn’s book by the same name, in which he uncovered an incredible amount of detail about the couple!

Michael Sucsy, whose short resume includes The Vow and Grey Gardens, has been tapped to direct.

Go Down Together is the latest of many new project for Jennifer Lawrence’s beau, whose role in the X-Men franchise has made him seriously hot prospect.

Rob Kardashian made his first public appearance in weeks at LA airport today.

Rob was spotted with the rest of the Kardashian clan, as they were on their way to catch a flight to France for Kimye’s wedding.

The 27-year-old looked unrecognisable as he tried to dodge cameras wearing tracksuit bottoms and black t-shirt.

Rob has been raising concerns recently with his strange behaviour. Last month, the reality star sent out a worrying tweet when reports began to surface about his weight gain, but quickly deleted it afterwards.

Doctors have said that they believe Rob’s weight gain could be as a result of a “thyroid problem”, but sources close to the star have said that Rob “binge eats” a lot.

We just hope Rob is back to his old self soon.

Summer pudding is much easier to make than you think, and the perfect fruity dessert for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

What you’ll need:

  1. 750g mixed summer fruit
  2. 185g caster sugar
  3. 1 medium white bread loaf, slightly stale
  4. 2 tbsp blackcurrent cordial

What you’ll need to do:

  1. Place the fruit in a pan, pour the sugar over the fruit and stir gently to mix together.
  2.  Place the pan over a moderate heat and bring gently up to the boil.
  3.  Cut the bread into thin slices and remove the crusts.
  4.  Simmer the juices for about 2-3 minutes, then turn off the heat and stir in the blackcurrant cordial.
  5.  Cut a round out of one slice of bread to fit the bottom of your bowl, then cut the remaining slices into triangular wedges.
  6.  Dip one side of the bread circle into the juices in the pan containing the fruit, then place the circle in the bottom of the pudding basin, juice-side down. Do the same with the bread triangles.
  7.  Spoon all of the fruit and its juices into the pudding basin. Cover the top of the fruit with more wedges of bread.
  8.  Find a saucer that fits neatly inside the bowl. Place it on top to cover the upper layer of bread, then weigh the saucer down with weights – bags of rice, tins of baked beans, or whatever comes to hand. Let it cool, then place in the fridge overnight.
  9.  The next day, remove the weights and the saucer. Run a thin blade around the edges, then invert the basin onto a shallow serving plate, before turning the pudding out. Voila!

Nicole Richie is never seen looking anything but pristine and polished these days – but that doesn’t mean she takes herself too seriously!

The designer uploaded this hilarious selfie to her Instagram account with the caption: “I Woke Up Like This. #flawless.”

The photo doesn’t show Nicole’s face but her purple hair looks rather different to normal…

We love that Nicole can make fun of herself, as well as making fun of all the celebrities who take perfect “I Woke Up Like This” selfies.
