Do you ever feel like this kitten?
Here are some tips to avoid and/or relieve those feelings:
- Maintain more peace by beginning and/or setting aside time each day for meditation-a quiet time for you. Begin with noticing your breathing. Allow your mind to get into the natural rhythm of your body.
- Treat your mind and body with love and respect.
- Drink plenty of water. Stay hydrated.
- Get adequate rest. Sleep deprivation affects our mind and body.
- Exercise regularly.
- Brain Gym movements.
- Engage socially. Simply talking to people face to face can release hormones that reduce stress.
- Move. Physical activity plays a key role in stress management-especially activities that require moving both arms and both legs. Focus on how it feels. Focused movement helps get the nervous system back into balance.
- Get a massage. Body work helps to relieve stress held in the tissues of the body.
- Laugh-a good deep belly laugh can do wonders. Watch a funny movie or do things which result in laughing. Laughter results in chemical changes in your body.
- Listen to soothing music. Breathe deeply and allow yourself to relax.
- Limit internet and phone use. They can increase tension.
