You need to take care of yourself and make sure you get the best out of every moment even when you are relaxing. Let me show you how.
-
Meditation. Taking a few moments in a day to cut back on the interaction with the outside, just relax and focus on your breathing! You might even find yourself falling asleep! But never fear, it’s one of those things that happen, meditation helps to lower your stress levels and increase blood flow.
-
Exercise/dance. Exercise daily no matter how lightly and if you can’t, dance. A 20-30 minute dance is an equivalent of the exercise period too.
-
Taking a walk. A light exercise but especially a walk in nature helps you relax and boosts your serotonin levels.
-
Sleep well. Never skip your sleep, not sleeping well enough can be a source of stress to you. Make sure that your sleeping area is very relaxed and another thing, make sure you don’t get interrupted by outside influences when you are trying to sleep. This means that you should switch off that phone or at least put it on silent ringer.
-
Eat well and healthy. Healthy diet equals to healthy you. Focus on eating lighter and more balanced food than heavier substitutes that are less nutritious and would not sit well with your body.
-
Vacation. Maybe a change of environment is what you need, plan that dream trip and take it
-
Organization. Being scattered increases stress. Build a structure and watch your efficiency rates skyrocket.
-
Know when to say no to others. Do not say yes at the detriment of your own self. Be good and kind to yourself also learn how to say no, your body depends on it.
