Health
is wealth, sure! But are we giving our best to maintain it? From early aging to
heart problems, the effects of daily stress is damaging your health in
irreversible ways. Some people may believe stress makes them perform better.
But that’s rarely true. In fact, it is vague.
The
greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over
another.– William James
These
days, society and the workplace put an unparalleled level of pressure on people
leading to stress. Stress which is the root cause of dementia is on a rapid
rise throughout the world. Stress has become so common around the globe that
“defeating stress” is one of the most discussed topics in World Health
Organization meets.
In
order to retain your health and happiness along with fulfilling your daily
responsibilities, we provide you a list of lifestyle hacks which may be used to
beat stress:
Give
Yourself a Break:
Get
your mind off the problem, it’s not going anywhere, but you can. Take the dog
for a mini walk. Revisit your funniest emails. Listen to your favorite song.
Google a beach in Tahiti. Make yourself a cup of herbal tea. This hack is all
about diverting your mind from your daily responsibilities to slow down the
thought process. In picture Organic Herbal tea which is available online.
To
kick start your day with a fresh and healthy green tea, go for herbal tea that
you can BUY here.
Eat
Right, Avoid Wrong:
Avoid
consuming caffeine in any way. Caffeine is a stimulant that increases
adrenaline in the body, the very hormone you are looking to reduce. Avoid
coffee (decaf is OK), colas, chocolate, and more than 2 cups of tea in a day.
Along with this, meal consumption should also be monitored in order to maintain
steady sugar level.
Therefore,
eat small meals often a day instead of eating large meals after a long gap of
time. Maintaining steady blood sugar levels is key to stabilizing mood. Ensure
you have a small meal every 2-3 hours that contains protein. For example, a
hard-boiled egg and lettuce, 10-12 almonds, a small can of tuna and brown rice.
Try
to include herbs in your diet. Those that reduce the effects of stress on the
body include Licorice, Siberian ginseng, rhodiola and withania. In picture

Work
out of Stress:
Concentrate
on your breathing pattern. The more anxious you become, breathing becomes
shallower and higher in the chest. Consciously lengthen your breath, breathing
deeper into the belly. Count to three on the in-breath, and four on the
out-breath. Along with this breathing exercise, yoga is also known to be
beneficial against stress problems. We provide you a few of those stress
relieving yoga poses along with their benefits, which you may apply:
Child
Pose (Balasana) – It is an effective yoga pose for relieving lower back pain,
hip strain and shoulder and neck stiffness.
Standing
Forward Bend (Uttanasana) – It helps in preserving proper functioning of the
nervous system by improving blood supply throughout the body.
Down
Dog (AdhoMukhaSavasana)– It helps in improving bone density and preventing bone
diseases such as osteoporosis in women.
Bridge
Pose (SetuBandhaSarvangasana)– It helps in stretching the muscles of the back
and the leg and is an effective exercise for toning the thighs and hips.

Discuss
Stress:
Talking
to yourself during stress is very important as affirmations are positive,
self-affirming messages to self. In the case of anxiety, calming and positive
is required. Try “All will be well”, or “I always cope, just breathe and
relax”.
In
case, talking to yourself does not seem to work, you can always tell someone
who cares like, calling your mum or a friend. Acknowledging you are finding a
situation stressful, and being heard and understood by someone who cares for
you, even if they can’t physically help, will reduce stress levels.
Seek
help On Time:
If
anxiety and stress has become a significant part your life, seek help from a
psychologist or counselor, stress is their specialty. You don’t have to do this
on your own. It is not a sign of weakness to seek help, as many stress patients
often misinterpret. Slightest sign of
stress or anxiety must not go unchecked. Proper diagnosis and medication is
vital for a patient dealing stress.
So
Stay happy, Stay fit and enjoy your life stress free.
