Change the Mindset to win over Stress
Posted by Shopify API on
- BREATHE: Yes a few deep breaths can make the world of difference! Breathing deeply and slowly can calm our nervous system and slow the heartbeat, making us feel less agitated and reduce our stress.
- STRETCH: When we are anxious and stressed our muscles tense up, which can lead to headaches. No one wants a headache on the top of stress, doing a few stretches can work wonders!
- Sit facing forwards hands pressing down onto the seat either side of your hips. Drop your right ear to your right shoulder, whilst pressing your left palm down to the seat. You will feel a strong stretch along the left side of your neck and probably through your shoulder. You may even feel the forearm and wrist stretching too, depending on how tight you are.
- Turn your chin in towards your right armpit (left palm still pressing down beside your left hip). You will feel the stretch move slightly behind where you first felt it.
- Slowly move your chin to the centre of your chest, hold for a couple of breaths before gently lifting your head to face forwards once more.
- Colour or doodle: Kids love colouring for a reason... so why can't we adults do it again? Adult colouring books are all the rage at the moment. Have you tried it? I can guarantee if you colour something in with your kids or friends’ kids you'll get right into it! Colour & creativity can only de-stress as it gives a mental release that can lead to more clarity when things are going pear-shaped.
- Laugh: See the funny side of whatever's stressing you. Make a joke out of whatever has gone wrong; see the lighter side of it.
