QUICK AND SIMPLE RITUALS TO LOWER YOUR STRESS LEVELS FAST
1. INVIGORATING MORNING ROUTINE
I get up at 5 a.m. every day and spend the first hour doing a mix of different morning rituals. I love to stand barefoot under a tree in the dewy grass and watch the sun come up, or simply enjoy a hot cup of peppermint tea. Afterwards, I feel focused and ready to start my day. Discover what works for you and helps you find your center. Morning is the best time for it!
2. GET IN TOUCH WITH YOURSELF
If you feel your stress levels rising,. What does it need at the moment? It often helps to tap your chest, stomach and back, massage your fingers and joints or rub your hands together vigorously. Try to always stand with both feet planted squarely on the ground, which gives you a sense of stability. We are used to acting according to what we think and have forgotten how to listen to our body, which knows what is truly good for us
3. BREATHE. BREATHE. BREATHE.
Sounds so simple and yet we have forgotten how to breathe deeply from the abdomen. Place your hand on the lower abdomen and take a few deep breaths through your nose and exhale through your mouth. Sighing audibly as you exhale can help relieve even more tension. Perhaps you have heard of the alternate nostril breathing technique, in which you inhale through one nostril and exhale through the other. This has a harmonizing effect on your entire system.
