Stress Busters

It seems we never have enough time to get everything done. You run all day and just when you think you can relax something else comes up. Here are a few ways to ease your everyday stress that only take a few minutes, but will make your life a little easier.

1.) Sit in a comfortable chair, close your eyes and breathe deeply in through your nose filling your chest with air. Breathe out slowly through your mouth releasing the problems of the day. Think only about the things that make you happy. Do this for 5 minutes.

2.) Sit in a comfortable position. Lean your head against the back of a chair. Close eyes, take a deep breath and place each thumb at a point on the base of the skull near each ear. Move thumbs downward from ears to shoulder tops; press and hold tense spots as you go. Then rub back of neck from base of skull downward, pressing and holding tense spots. Cross one arm over chest and press muscles along top of opposite shoulder; hold until tension is released. Repeat with other arm. Drop arms to sides, and breath, imagining your skull is heavy as a bowling ball. Relax completely.

3.) Take a Bubble Bath. Light scented candles all around you, and turn off the lights listen to classical music. Imagine you’re self on a quiet Tropical Island. See your self relaxing on a great lounge chair while servants take care of your every need.

4.) Get a good night’s sleep: Don’t drink coffee or eat too late as it makes it difficult to sleep. Try listening to soothing music as you drift off to sleep. Don’t think about what you need to do the next day. One thing that works well for me is counting backwards from 600 to 0 by 4’s i.e.; 600, 596, 592, 588, 584; this makes it very difficult to think of other things that keep you awake.

5.) Add a few drops of calming aromas to Canola or Sunflower oil, smooth on temples or earlobes.

6.) Exercise; It increase blood flow, bringing more oxygen to your brain and unkinks tight muscles.

7.) To ease kinks out of shoulders and upper body, while sitting at your desk, alternate each arm, reaching towards the ceiling. Do this for 5 minutes.

8.) Light scented candles around the room turn off lights lie on your back and reach arms and legs toward ceiling. Rotate, starting with each arm and then each leg. Do this for 10 minutes.

9.) Rotate your head stretching as far as you can, start to your right shoulder, the to the back as if looking at the ceiling, then to left shoulder then to front, putting chin to chest. Do for a few minutes then rotate starting with left shoulder.

10.) Close your eyes lift both arms over your head until your hands touch. Slowly lower your arms down to your sides up and down as if in a flying motion. Imagine you are a bird flying over the ocean. Let your imagination soar.

You’re in the middle of a diet, but you’re restless to look thinner or you simply have a more robust body and there is nothing you can do about it. Don’t worry; there are little tips that work even in your case! Here are some of them:

• In what concerns women, things can be worked out without difficulty: make-up can be an ally and a special tool to make some changes in your favor. It is essential to get a tan! Stay in the sun or go to a beauty saloon, use a tanning lotion or whatever it takes to color your skin. If you use a tanning lotion include more under the cheeks, as the colored areas always look deeper and this will make your face look thinner than it really is. Use a lot of eye make up in order to make your eyes bigger, because the bigger your eyes look, the smaller your face seems. Also, give special concentration to your eyebrows for the same reasons as the ones mentioned above. You can even make up your legs: lay a vertical line of oil on the middle part of your legs, so that it makes your bone shine. You’ll discover that you’re legs, due to the extra shine, never looked longer!

• This trick goes well both for men and women. It has to do with the manner in which we put together our hair. The more volume we give to our hair, the better. Your face will look smaller than it really is and it will give you a certain charm, particularly if you don’t forget to play with it, from time to time.

• The clothes you’re wearing can indeed make a difference! Don’t use clothes that are too colored, they will only be a magnet for more eyes on the areas that you plan to hide. Chose black or dark blue clothes, as they will make you look up to 5 pounds thinner. In what concerns the right length for the skirt, women who intend to look a lit thinner than they really are should stick to the skirts that go up to the knees. Shorter ones show how heavy their legs are and longer one show thick ankles. Both men and women should wear clothes with vertical stripes (they go for pants, skirts, shirts, dresses etc.). Use blouses and shirts with buttons, because they create a vertical line. The same effect is created by long zippers. Loose the pockets or avoid filling them up. They will only make those areas look larger than they are. Both men and women wear jeans from time to time, so make sure you have in your wardrobe at least two pairs of jeans that are not unflattering on you.

• Pay attention to the position of your body. A correct position can make you up an inch taller than you are.

• Reduce the quantity of alcohol that you consume. It will not only improve your health, but also help you get rid of one to two pounds, in no time.

• Keep in mind these tricks and use your imagination to determine more!
