1. Take three deep breaths slowly. It really works to relax the body and mind.
2. Relax the tongue. Usually the tongue is held tightly against the teeth. Free it up in the mouth so it can just rest there without tension.
3. Take one minute vacations. In your mind visit places where you find peace and stillness. Picture yourself there soaking up the beauty and solitude.
4. Relax your facial muscles. When we are tense we frown and squint which adds to the tension. Tell your facial muscles to relax and they will. Try to maintain this relaxed face throughout the day.
5. Move slowly. When you find yourself rushing for no reason, SLOW DOWN.
6. Laugh more. Laughter cuts stress in half and promotes relaxation
7. Listen to beautiful music. Mozart calms the restless spirit.
8. Watch and enjoy the sunset.
9. Visualize yourself as a balloon being inflated. As you breathe in, the balloon fills with your stress and tension. Then breathe out all the stress and tension leaving yourself limp and relaxed.
10. Enjoy the rhythm and beauty of nature for its lessons are patience and peace
