SMILE — When we smile, our face muscles relax and it immediately sends a signal to our brain and makes us happy. Don’t wait for an opportunity. Just fake it!
MEDITATE/PRAY — Meditation and prayer help calm down nerves and helps you connect with your true nature. This helps you to stay grounded.
EXERCISE — Exercising draws out the blood and energy from the brain and brings it to the body and legs. This relaxes the brain and energizes the body. As a result, you feel good.
BE GRATEFUL — The more you focus on things you don’t have, the more stressed you’ll be. Just change your focus to things, for which you are grateful, and see the difference!
EAT HEALTHY — Junk foods like refined sugar and white flour drain off vital nutrients from our body and sap our energy. Eat more veggies, fruits and fresh, whole food.
DISTRACT YOURSELF — Simple distractions like getting involved in the game or some fun activity can work wonders.
BREATHE RIGHT — Make a point to take slow, deep breaths whenever you are stressed. You’ll feel the difference in minutes.
CORRECT POSTURE — Stressed people usually have a curved it’s fine. As a result, your lungs cannot expand fully and they work as much as 30% below their capacity. The result is less synergy and more fatigue. Keep your spine straight and relaxed.
GET A MASSAGE — A weekly oil massage can work wonders in releasing stress and improving your well being.
SPEND TIME WITH HAPPY PEOPLE — Laughter and stress are both contagious. Just like happy people make you happy, stressed and depressed people make you more stressed and depressed.
