Stress and the mere mention of the word will bring upon uneasy feelings for many. Sometimes all you long for is a bit of silence but if that is not possible using your senses will help.
Touch – If you are finding yourself running circles and feeling completely overwhelmed it is essential to find time to escape and experience the power of touch. Schedule your chiropractic adjustment or massage or simply retreat to a warm soothing bubble bath. You will notice your attitude and stress begin to melt within a matter of minutes.
Taste – If you are unable to escape then consider a warm cup of tea or your favorite dessert. These delicious treats will take the edge off a hectic, stressful day and of course would work wonders if you could enjoy these treats away from the overwhelming environment.
Hear – Listening to soothing and relaxing music will certainly help to reduce the stress keeping you wound up and tight. Music has a wonderful ability to soothe the soul so it is important to make the time to listen. When you feel a stressful situation arising flip on a song and remove yourself if not physically, mentally into the music. The power of music is immense, try using it today to melt away the stress.
See – It’s truly amazing what the lack of natural light will do to the body. With the winter months upon us, many will walk into their place of employment in the morning and not see daylight again until the next day. Take a midday walk around the block and open your eyes to what the world has to offer. When at home consider opening up the blinds and allowing the sunshine in and in the evening use calming candles.
Smell – The next time you feel as if you are about to lose control, allow your nose to take you away from it all. You know that feeling you get when you smell delicious cookies or pies baking, then you have already experienced the power of smell. Keep scented candles in your home and don’t neglect the wonderful essential oils that not only smell wonderfully but also containing healing elements. Simply smelling lavender oil or peace and calming oil will send you to a more peaceful place instantly.
Don’t allow the stress or overwhelm take over; put your senses to work to help reduce and melt away the stress.
