Five Tips To Reduce Stress
Stress is something we all encounter at one point or another. Even when you don't think you're stressed, your body will tell a different story. Learn how to manage stress and live a well balanced life with some of these tips below.
1. Pray/meditate
Prayer and meditation does wonders for me when I feel overwhelmed. I suggest finding a quiet place to pray and connect with God. When you take your mind away from your problems and gain a clear prospective, you'll find a greater sense of peace.
2. Control your thoughts
Sometimes the cause of stress is deeper than "just another bad day." Controlling your thoughts is vital. If you always think negatively or think it will never get any better, you're most likely going to perpetuate the situation and make it worst. Don't always think the worst of everything! Fill your mind with things that will help you have a positive outlook on life.
3. Exercise
I personally like to go for a walk or run whenever I'm feeling bogged down. Find a way to incorporate exercise as a lifestyle, doing this will help you relieve some stress.
4. De-clutter your life
This one is a biggie! You may wonder what de-cluttering your life has to do with stress?...well it has a lot to do with it. Get your home, office, car and anything else out of order in line and you will find that your mind will be much clearer and less chaotic. (another blog on this to come....)
5. Take time to do something you enjoy
All work and no play is no fun!!!! Treat yourself to something really nice.... get a massage, go to the spa or plan a nice getaway. Having balance is the key to a healthy and happy life :)
