There’s no question there’s a lot more stress in life these days. Whether it be from work, money, relationships or family. It all adds up and can be detrimental to your health. As the weather begins to warm up, and the new year is in full swing, remember to take a moment for yourself each day.
Here are five daily tips to help clear your mind:
Take Five Minutes to Meditate
You can meditate anywhere. Simply take five minutes, sit up straight with your feet on your floor, close your eyes, and focus on a positive mantra. Take deep breaths while holding your stomach. Focusing on a positive statement will help relieve any anxiety.
Breathe Deeply
It’s amazing what a good deep breath will do for you. If you have just a couple of minutes, rather than check emails or social media, take a few minutes for a couple of good deep breaths. This will help slow your heart rate and lower your blood pressure.
Be in The Moment
Have you ever heard the term, “be in the moment?” It's simple - all you have to do is slow down. In a world with so many devices and screens open simultaneously, this one is crucial. Take a minute to reset and focus on the moment. Feel the air across your face, savor every bite when you’re eating. This will help relieve tension from your body.
Get Moving
Make sure you get some exercise in your day. This doesn’t mean you have to go for a big run – it can be simple, take a short walk or take a yoga class. Moving releases feel-good chemicals and helps you deal with stress and anxiety.
Decompress
One of the best ways to de-stress is to take time and de-compress. Everyone deserves a few minutes to take time for themselves. Use a warm towel and place it around your neck for 10-minutes. Close your eyes and relax your body. This will feel amazing.
