back muscles and neck. Remove the wrap, and use a tennis ball or foam roller to

floor. Start at your toes and work your way up to your scalp, noticing how your
body feels….Continued,

loose without trying to change anything”. For 1 – 3 minutes, imagine each deep

your body, paying close attention to sensations you feel in each body part.
7.Get Moving

runner’s high. All forms of exercise, including yoga, walking or slow dance.

chemicals and by giving your body a chance to practice dealing with stress. You
can go for a quick walk around the block, take the stairs up and down a few
flights, or do some stretching exercises like head rolls and shoulder shrugs.

A good belly laugh doesn’t just lighten the
load mentally. It lowers cortisol, your body’s stress hormone, and boosts
brain-chemicals called endorphins, which help your mood. Lighten up by turning
in to your favourite sitcom or video, reading the comics, favourite anime or
chatting with someone who makes your smile or fun.
9.Be Grateful

Keep a gratitude journal or several – one by
your bed, one in your purse, and one at your desk work.
-To help you remember all the things that are
good in your life.
“Being grateful for your blessings cancels
out negative thoughts and worries,”.
Use these journals to savor good experiences
like a child’s smile, a sunshine-filled day, and good health. Don’t forget to
celebrate accomplishments like mastering a new task at work or a new hobby.
When you start feeling stressed, spend a few
minutes looking through your notes to remind yourself what really matters.
10.Crank Up The Tunes

Research shows that listening to soothing
music can reduce blood pressure, heart rate, and anxiety.
“Create a playlist of songs or nature sounds
(the ocean, birds chirping, a bubbling brook), and allow your mind to focus on
the different melodies, instruments, or singers in the pieces,”.
You also can blow off steam by rocking out to
more upbeat tunes – or singing at the top of your lungs!!!
