Life can be stressful and whether we like it or not we can all get caught up from time to time in the stress of work, life and play.
If you’re looking for some simple ways to eradicate stress from your day, we’ve put together some our top relaxation tips for which can help you aim for a stress-free life.
Get organised for tomorrow
Sometimes being unprepared and disorganised causes stress in your daily life and unwanted anxiety. Take some time to create a to-do list or prepare yourself for the next day so that you kick off the day feeling organised and positive and without the leftovers from the day before.
Get healthy and snack properly
Eating on the run can mean you eat unhealthy snacks such as ice creams, chips, cookies and convenience foods rather than foods with high nutritional value. Resist the urge to grab unhealthy snacks and plan ahead by putting a healthy snack in your bag on or your desk at work to ensure you are fueling your body with the right foods that will make you feel good and benefit your brain function.
Zen out with a simple task
Sometimes zening of the world for 20 minutes by doing a mundane task such as knitting, washing the dishes or vacuuming has a calming effect on your body. Life doesn’t have to be full of busy and important tasks, and sometimes a really repetitive task will help you to relax and lower your blood pressure.
Put on some music
Music has a calming effect and whether you are stressed out while driving or you are stuck on a train during the daily commute putting on some music and rocking out will provide the relaxation your body needs to reduce stress, slow your heart and relax your fingers, arms, shoulders and back.
Take a tech time-out
While you might love being connected to technology, it can have a massive impact on your stress levels and being available at a moments notice via phone or email can lead to an increase in stress levels. Jump off your phone, put it into flight mode or turn if off for a few hours a day to try and kick the habit of being connected to technology 24/7. You family and friends will love you for being more engaged, and you won’t feel the need to always be connected.
