Tips to De-Stress Your Life

This is just a quick list of tips that I find help to de-stress life:

• Look to the Sky
  Get outside and stare at the clouds when you’re feeling tunnel visioned
• Open the Windows
  Allow for fresh air to recycle out the old, stale air in a home. In China this is practiced every morning
• Exercise
  I know, typical from me. But it helps. Endorphins help to open pathways to allow new thoughts to rush in
• Eat Less Crap
  86 the junk food and high saturated fats from your diet. Do you think you’d run better on Dunkins‘ (?), Wendy’s fries (?), a Whopper (?), salmon (?), or fruit?
  If you answered either of the last two you are correct. Clear your diet and de-stress.
• Talk It Out
  Whether you need to talk to yourself out loud to help clear your thoughts, call a friend, or bend the ear off some hairdresser or bartender you must voice out your thoughts. If not, you may drown in a self-created world.
• Play
  Get outside, act like a kid. Try a cartwheel. Shoot hoops. Go to the batting cages. Just play. You’d be amazed at what play can do for your mental sanity. If you have children, grandchildren or a dog play with them. You’ll double your ability to de-stress I promise. Plus your child will gain more from this rather than you just watching them from a window or by sitting on the porch steps.
• Walk Barefoot on the Grass
  Okay so maybe I got this Pretty Woman, but its true. I’ll be in Orlando Thursday and can’t wait for the warmth and some grass to walk upon. It helps to feel in touch with the earth. It’s amazing the contact we lose from a simple shoe or sneaker.
• Drink Water
  Simple. But highly effective. Helps clear the body of toxins and helps the recovery, and survival process. Plus water is calming.
• Find a Wave
  Just stare at the ocean. If you live in the middle of the states Youtube if you have to. But find a place where you can literally watch, and hear waves roll to shore. I’m lucky to have Rexhame and the other beaches of Marshfield just beyond the studio doors.
• Love Somebody
  You do not have to fall in love, but express to someone you love them. The power of connection is truly amazing. We don’t hear the words enough. Let people know you love them… if you do. And if you don’t… don’t say it. Find other complimentary words.
• Compliment Someone
  Telling and hearing wonderful words about yourself and others is a fast action remedy to de-stress the body. Positivity breeds positivity.
• 30 Minutes
  Take 30 minutes a day to something you love. For myself, it’s playing guitar, singing, cooking, studying, going to the beach, etc… find something you love to do and write it in to your planner if you have to. Schedule it aside. Just make sure you do it.

Those are just a few tips to clearer your head and finding anyway to live the dream.

Hopefully this helps 🙂
