How to Stress!
First I taught you how not to stress yourself out. Now I help teach you five ideas for living a more stressful life! Laughter is the best medicine and maybe this will alert you, like it did me, to some behaviors you may already have that stress you out!
Then, since I have multiple friends who have been smoke-free since January 1, I have been reading about things I can do to help cheer them on … and found 52 proven tips to help stress that are all short enough that I read each of them. The ones that stuck out include:
4. Do nothing you have to lie about later.
28. Do this yoga exercise when you need to relax: Inhale through your nose to the count of eight. Pucker your lips and exhale slowly to the count of 16. Concentrate on the long sighing sound and feel the tension dissolve. Repeat 10 times. This one makes me laugh when I do it becuase I probably look REALLY silly!
33. Learn to live one day at a time.
34. Everyday, do something you really enjoy.
