How To Manage Everyday Stress
Often times stress will manifest when we carry over yesterday's
concerns into our present day concerns. An accumulation will
almost always end up in a high stress level. Therefore, we must
be able to "dump" all of our concerns from the previous day or
days and concentrate wholly on our today.
Stress Busting Tip #1
Resolve right now to release every thought from yesterday and be
only mindful of the now.... this thought only...this
breath...this moment. Take in three very deep breaths and slowly
release each one.
At the same time feel each and every concern, each and every
problem, and each and every unresolved moment, begin to
dissolve. You can deal with them at a later time. For now, you
are only to be in this very moment.
Now go to your inner quiet place. Go deep inside to a place
where you feel that you are at peace and then just relax and
breathe in deeply and enjoy the feeling of being at one and at
peace within yourself.
Use this special time and place to be calm. Free your mind and
body of all worry, all regret, all disappointment, all anger and
grief.
Stress Busting Tip #2
Next, think of one particular act, such as rocking your baby,
taking a quick stroll, raking the leaves, and do that one simple
thing. All the while, your mind is quiet and calm and you are in
your own special place within.
Practice this act of quiet and calm each day and you will see
that you will accomplish so much more. At the first sign of
being stressed, go back to this

mindful, quiet place and start
all over again until you have reached your inner place of calm.
Stress Busting Tip #3
The very best thing that you can do for yourself is to eat,
drink and rest - to your health!
Stress is easily brought on by not eating and drinking properly.
When you don't get the number of hours of sleep that you need
each night, you are only setting yourself up for additional
stress.
Limit the amount of salt, sugar, caffeine and alcohol in your
diet. Drink plenty of clean, pure water each day and do at least
moderate exercise each day. This will breathe new life into your
skin, hair and will nourish all of your vital organs.
Take time to breathe properly! Take deep belly breathes to send
pure oxygen to all of your body. Laugh and then laugh some more.
It is food for the soul! Spend time doing the things that please
you most. Engage in healthy and fulfilling relationships and
work on problems that would erode the closeness that you have
with someone special.
When we are content and living a balanced life everyday stresses
seem to pale in comparison. We are better equipped to deal with
the unexpected.
