Easy Health Care For Stress
The fast pace of work leaves little time for a moment
of stillness and relaxation; something that you need
to help combat all the daily stress in your life.
Here are some easy steps for you to do to help create
some stillness in your life.
After you finish your work day, you’ve eaten, don’t
plop down in front of the TV. Take a few minutes to
learn how to calm yourself with stillness.
Turn off all the noise around you, the TV, the phone
or anything else that may distract you. Turn down
the lights in the room, sit in a comfortable chair,
close your eyes and relax. You may only be able to
be there for a few minutes, but try to increase
the time of sitting a little each day.
Notice how you feel. Are your muscles all tense from
work?
Are there any little aches or pains in your body?
What do you heard?, the traffic outside?
Just relax while you notice how you feel or listen to
the things around you.
Now concentrate on your breathing. How are you
breathing?
Try a long slow breath in and leave out a long sigh.
Make the breathing out longer than breathing in. This
will help to relax you. After a few seconds of deep
breathing, notice how you feel.
If you are still tense, take a few more breathes and
notice if the tension is gone.
Don’t worry if your mind wanders away from your
breathing:it takes practice to calm the mind. Once
you notice you aren’t concentrating on your breathing,
return to focusing on it.
Remember how it feels with the tension out of your
body, how relaxed you feel, how the muscles feel
when relaxed. The deep breathing helps to slow down
your body and relaxes the mind.
When at work take a few seconds to recall how the
calmness felt. Give your mind a few seconds of
calmness and see what a difference it will make in
your work day.
Remember to relax, deep breathe to relieve the stress
of daily living, a few seconds will work wonders.
