HERE ARE 5 NEW WAYS TO RELAX WHEN LIFE GETS STRESSFUL

Practice Yoga

Yoga is great for managing stress. Yoga can help relieve tension in your limbs and teach you to quiet your mind. Some studies even suggest that yoga can help reduce the impact of exaggerated stress responses and may be helpful for both anxiety and depression.

Master a new skill or hobby 

One way to combat stress is to change your routine and challenge your brain to learn something completely new. Mastering a new skill takes a lot of concentration and brain power. When you’re focused on learning something new, there’s no room to worry about work or what you’re going to make for dinner.

What hobby have you always wanted to take up? What skill have you always wanted to master? Now is the time!

Swim

Swimming isn’t just a great way to stay in shape. Research shows that swimming is a wonderful stress reliever! If you don’t want the headache of owning a traditional pool or you don’t have the space for one, consider purchasing a swim spa. A swim spa allows you to swim all-year round, even if you live in a cold climate.

Talk to a friend

Sometimes you just need to vent! When life gets stressful, call up a friend who’s supportive and a great listener. Your loved one may even be able to help you solve the problem that’s causing you stress. Spend a few minutes venting and then move on to other, more enjoyable topics.

Floatation Therapy

Learn to relax in the deepest sense of the word—weightless, silent, peaceful. Floatation therapy has been shown beneficial for many different conditions, from migraines to sleep problems, and is an effective way to wash away stress. You can find float centers all over the country or you can purchase your own float tank.

Managing stress is a skill that must be practiced regularly. Make these stress management techniques a part of your regular routine. Which of the strategies above do you think would be most effective at helping you relax?
