🎬 Vlog Post | How to Relax Fast (Stress Management Vlog Series)
Why should you learn how to relax fast? Because stress is more than just unpleasant. It's also dangerous. Many diseases, some incurable, are now known to be caused by or made worse by stress, but you CAN do something about it. Just try these relaxation techniques today and use them whenever you feel that tension coming on.
1) Take a hot shower - The hot water relaxes your muscles, and the break from more stressful activities helps give you a reset.
2) Play relaxing music - Experiment to see which music relaxes you the most effectively. Then make a playlist of all your favorite relaxation songs so you can access it at the office, in traffic, on the go, or wherever you'll need it most.
3) Get a change of scenery - This really helps if what is stressing you out is coming from your environment or is associated with it. Why not get out for a little while? Take a quick walk or go somewhere you find peaceful.
4) Have a cup of chamomile tea - Chamomile seems to have a calming effect on the nerves, and hot drinks in general can help you relax. Be careful of caffeine when choosing your beverages as it can exacerbate symptoms of stress.
5) Pay attention to internal cues - If you can spot the stressors lurking just below the surface (hunger, worrying, stressful thoughts, your ever-growing to-do list), you can resolve any pressing matters and prepare for the things that can be taken care of at a later time.
6) Have a good laugh - Of course, you know from experience that laughing and having fun helps you relax, right? Find the guy that knows all the best jokes, grab your best friend and go do something silly, or just find something funny to read or watch. Whatever you choose, allow yourself to become immersed in laughter.
7) Take some deep breaths – When the stress starts to get to you, just close your eyes and focus solely on your breathing while doing this. Taking five slow deep breaths is like a invigorating mini-meditation.
8) Take a walk - Walking is one of the best relaxation techniques if you have at least ten minutes to spare. Busy at work? Take a short walk around your building and explore areas you’ve never gone. If you have more time, drive to a local park you’ve never been to and take a leisurely stroll.
9) Give someone a hug - As long as it's from somebody you don't mind hugging, hugging someone is a great choice to reduce stress. Not only does hugging have a calming effect, but it actually can cause your body to release endorphins, giving you an instant feeling of pleasure and happiness.
10) Interrupt your routine – Our lives have the tendency to become routine. Don’t get me wrong, I love my routines, but when you become so enmeshed in the to-dos, you miss a lot of the world around you. So, take a moment and stop to talk to that guy sleeping on the bench, or go eat lunch on the roof, sign up for a pottery class, take online courses for self-improvement... Do something you’ve always wanted to but never did. Anything that breaks you out of your regular habitual patterns can help relieve stress.
Over time, relaxation will come more naturally to you. Of course, if the thought of the work involved in this just stresses you out more, you might want to take it slow. In the meantime, the relaxation techniques above really aren't difficult, nor are they set in stone. So, why not try a few of these tips, being sure to take the liberty of adjusting them to best meet your needs, and start relaxing fast!
