5 Ways To Stress Less

 

 

We all deal with stress, it's a normal part of life. But that doesn't mean there aren't things we can do to reduce it. If you're looking for some easy ways to manage your stress and take back control, here are 5 great ways to do so. 

 

  1. Breathe

Simple, but so powerful. Focusing on our breathing is an incredible tool that helps us to immediately take the reins during moments of panic, helping us to slow our heart rate and trigger a sense of calm. We suggest using the 4-7-8 rule: breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds, exhale for 8 seconds. Repeat at least 3 times.

 

  1. Ground yourself

Grounding is the act of connecting with your surroundings by utilising all 5 senses. By tuning into the world around you, you bring yourself into the present moment and away from your racing thoughts. Use the below prompts to help you calm your farm in moments of stress.

List:

5 things you can see

4 things you can feel

3 things you can hear

2 things you can smell

1 thing you can taste

  

  1. Walk it out

It has been proven time and time again that moving the body is fantastic for our overall wellbeing. Just a quick stroll around the block can act as a reset that will bring you back down to earth, plus you’ll be getting in a little physical activity which is always a bonus.

 

  1. Talk it out

Vocalising our stressors is a good way to put things into perspective and remind us that our worries aren’t all that bad. When we keep our stress bottled up, it can seem so much bigger than it actually is, so confiding in someone you trust over a cuppa will make a world of difference. Not a talker? Writing your stressors down will work just as well!
