Don’t Let Work Or Your Home Life Overwhelm You

Use these 5 tips to unwind wherever you are, in one minute or less.

1. Look up and count

• Your parasympathetic nervous system can lower your blood pressure.

• Count down slowly from 60 to clear your mind.

2. Breathe deeply

• Take deep breaths to calm yourself and slow your heart rate.
• Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth and focus on your body.
• Do this 10 times.

3. Jot down your anxieties

• Put everything that’s worrying you on paper and then don’t look at it till later.

4. Intentionally tense and relax muscles

• When you’re stressed, your body tightens up.
• Slowly tense and then relax all of your muscles to decrease both anxiety and tension.

5. Use your imagination
