Do's And Don'ts For Anxiety/Stress Relief.
You don't need a doctor to tell you that anxiety/stress isn't healthy, but you may need help learning to overcome it.
If you want less anxiety/stress and more peace in your life then I suggest that you try a few of these ideas.
* Get up 15 minutes earlier than you normally do in the morning.
* Prepare for your morning the night before.
* Listen to a relaxing CD in the morning instead of the morning news.
* Get rid of that annoying alarm clock and buy one that wakes you up with a light, an aroma, or pleasant tones.
* Eat breakfast daily.
* Get centered before you go out into the world. Take a few minutes to pray or meditate.
* Get up early enough to do a few exercise routines.
* Set one daily goal.
* Drink your favorite beverage from your favorite mug.
* Make lists. Don't try and rely on memory alone.
* Make duplicates of all keys. Put a house key in a secret place and carry a spare car key in your wallet or purse.
* Practice preventive maintenance. This will keep things running as smoothly as possible so your car, etc wonbreak down at the worst possible moments.
* Be prepared to wait. Carry a small book with you.
* Don't procrastinate - DO IT TODAY!
* Plan ahead. Keep your gas tank as full as possible.
* Keep a stock of home staples in case of emergency.
* Don't ignore little things that don't work. The small sources of aggravation can add up.
* Give yourself a 15 to 20 minute cushion for appointments, etc.
* Be a "Pollyanna". Try to remember the good things when things seem to be going wrong.
* Forget about the caffeine.
* Relax your standards. Will the world come to an end if you don't get somthing done?
* Do something for someone else. It will make you feel good as well as reduce stress.
* Get at least 8 hours of sleep.
* Take a vacation, even if it's on the weekends only.
* Start gardening.
* Laugh at life. Even if it means renting a movie.
* Don't hold a grudge.
* Have a massage once a month.
* Relax to music. Experts suggest giving classical music a try.
* Keep a journal.
* Take a walk in the sun. Even if it is only to the mailbox or a friend's house.
* Practice deep breathing.
* Take rewarding breaks from work. Avoid people who complain most of the time.
* Get away from your workstation. Do some physical activity unrelated to your work. Take a walk or do some stretching.
The thing to remember is to control your anxiety/stress for a healthy life.
