Have you ever felt as if life is spinning your wheels and situations spiraling out of control? How do you feel when this happens? What do you do, to regain your sense of calm and inner balance?
Here are three simple stress relieving tips you can use to find comfort, balance and ease.
3 Tips For Instant Calm And Balance
1. Stretch: As a yoga teacher, you know I had to include this as one of the quickest ways to let go off stress and feel calmer and happier! A gentle yoga stretch at the beginning of your day helps to energise and awaken your body and puts you in a happier frame of mind to start your day.
During the day, especially if you spend long periods of time, sitting down working on a computer, a few minute Yoga Break, does wonders to reduce stress and ease stiff neck muscles.
Calm Moment Tip #1: Take five minutes to practice a simple relaxation exercise. It will ease tension from your shoulders, lower back and neck and draw your attention inwards away from the hustle and bustle swirling around you.
2. Relax: Learning how to relax and rest makes a huge difference to your ability to stay calm and carry on. The pace of everyday life has got so fast that most of my yoga students start yoga simply as a means to learn how to relax. It is easy, especially as busy working mums to get too caught up in work and doing things for your family that you simply do not have time to relax and even if you did create time; your mind is still in overdrive running through the never ending list of things to do.
Calm Moment Tip #2: Treat yourself. Give yourself a simple hand massage guaranteed to ease knots and soreness in your shoulders and neck.
3. Breathe: Top of my instant calm list is breathing. Learning how to stop what you are doing and bring your attention to your breath is vital to your everyday well being. Your breath is your constant companion and the quickest way to boost your energy and be a happier you.
Calm Moment Tip #3: Turn your attention to your everyday breath, close your eyes and become aware of how you are breathing. Stay still and focus on listening to your breath for 2 minutes. You will instantly feel calm and peaceful and have more energy.
Final Words
There you have it. Three simple ways your yoga practice helps bring more calm, balance and tranquility into your day.
Next time you feel a wobbly coming on and your family start getting on your nerves or work colleagues stressing you out, just take a step back... Stretch, Relax and Breathe. You will feel better, lighter and brighter, have more energy and feel happier as you go through your day
