Along with my meds and therapy I exercise, try to eat healthy, sometimes do yoga and meditation. Aromatherapy is very nice, I find it relaxing. Other things I do are journaling and mindfulness. I don't really do any "alternative" treatments, I just try to have a healthy lifestyle and use techniques/coping skills as kind of an adjunct to the meds and therapy. Being out in nature is great too, even if it's just taking a walk, it helps me organize my thoughts
