Who is stressed these days? That’s a silly question. Just about every routine day, brings a bit of stress. But right now is anything, but routine! So how do we deal with it?
Here are some simple suggestions:
- Listen to music. Download the RADIO.com app and be sure to favorite your station.
- Exercise. Go for a walk with the dog. Do Yoga, Tai Chi, aerobics. Dance to your favorite kind of music.
- Smell a soothing scent… Candles, oils. Try lavender, rosemary or even a springtime scent.
- Take a hot bath. The soothing effect of a hot bath can increase blood flow and ease pain. Don’t forget the rubber ducky.
- Massage. Who doesn’t love a good massage?
- Drink a cup of herbal tea. Chamomile and passion fruit are natural relaxants.
- Get a good night’s sleep. Strive for 8 hours, then write down your dreams.
- Improve your diet. Put down the junk food, and choose healthy snacks instead.
- Organize-- your home, your finances, your life.
- Have a bubble blowing contest.
- Scream “rubber baby buggy bumpers” really loud.
- Eat chocolate.
- Plant some flowers.
- Reconnect with a family member or friend. Pick up the phone or send them a text—you’ll be glad that you did!
