5 Tips to Calm Stress Levels Now

We are expected to be able to do a million things in a week. 

There is not enough time in our days to get everything done. 

We are literally spinning in to do lists and losing out on the ability to calm down, focus, and enjoy precious moments.

We can stop this chaos though.  YOU have the ability within to do this.

Try these FIVE Tips to destress ASAP -

1.  JOURNAL - When the days get crazy and you lose complete sight of your goals, try to regain your focus and clarity by writing things down.  Garb a pen and start writing your worries, to do list items, dreams, goals, or anything else on your mind in that moment.  Get it out of you head and on paper so you can clear mental clutter.

2.  CREATE A SCHEDULE - Write down exactly what you HAVE to do in that very moment, the next hour, and so forth for the rest of the day.  Gain even more clarity by continuing to write down your MUST DO's for the next day as well.  Write anything you would "like" to do if you have time on a separate sticky note.  This allows your mind to be very clear on what NEEDS to get done so you can stay focused.  I also want you to add thirty minutes in between each task on your calendar so you have self care time, catch up time, or extra time if you kiddos need you.  You will be way more likely to stay on schedule by devoting this extra time to YOURSELF.

3.  GET GROUNDED - Look around you and notice three solid objects that are very grounded (they are not moving).  Now plant your feet in the ground and feel grounded too.  Tell yourself you are just like a tree.  You are rooted, strong, and can sway gracefully with the winds.  You have the ability to control your mind and control your reactions.  You have the ability to allow yourself to stop, breathe, and relax.

4.  BREATHE - By now you have cleared the mental clutter by writing it all down.  You know exactly what needs to get done today.  You have stopped to ground yourself.  Now you just need to continue to know that it is okay to take a "me" break.  It is okay to take five, ten, or even thirty minutes to focus on deep breathing and calming tense muscles.  You can allow your body and mind to stop spinning because it is okay to do this.  The high stress response and tension you are feeling is your body telling you that you NEED to be doing this.   You need this time.

5.  LAUGH IT OUT or HUG IT OUT - Better yet, do both!  Find someone you absolutely love and give them a big hug for at least twenty seconds or... find that one person in your life that makes you gut laugh like crazy!  Where are they?  Maybe it is multiple!  Give them a call or a visit and tell them you just need a good laugh!  Hugs and laughter are calming and fulfilling.  You can never have enough of either!
