My Stress-Relieving Rituals

in Ladies of Hivelast month

With the current life that I’m living, there’s no day I’m not stressed out. Most days, I wake up with severe headache and it makes me wonder when my life came to this. Gone were the days when I had nothing to worry about. I’d wake up from sleep, cry, play, eat and sleep. Now, I’m a young adult who needs to take up responsibilities, work hard in order to earn money for a comfortable life.

I love soft life, but soft life doesn’t come easily. I’d rather prefer to work myself out now and live a soft life in a few years time than to live a soft life now and suffer in a few years time. I believe it’s all about planning and how an individual envisions his future. It is only then that you would know what steps to take in your life. Everyday, I have to wake up and show up to work, events and what have you like I’m not already losing my mind.

One funny thing about me is that stress looks good on me physically but mentally, everything is a mess. When I’m stressed out you see me gaining weight and looking fresh which I find to be so unusual. People see me and they be like you’re glowing. All I say in my head is ‘if only they knew’. I don’t think there’s any day you’d see me walking without earphones in my ear. Most people tend to find it to be weird but that’s my major source of relieving stress. There are days I barely have time for myself and I’m so stressed out. In such instances, all I need to do is put my earphones on, play some music and I’d feel a lot better. I’m sure my neighbours hate me at this point because on weekends when I’m not sleeping, I’m jamming to music all day long. I find music to be a great stress reliever for me and it’s my first option when I’m stressed out.

Next would be my bed. No matter what is going on in my life once my body hits the bed, that’s the end of it all. Sleep takes us one step away from our problems and stress but it doesn’t last forever. It’s actually good to have a break from all the drama happening around you and for me, I think sleeping does the work for me. I love to sleep, especially when I’m free but on a normal day, I always make sure to prioritise my sleep because a few hours of sleep can do a lot for the body than one can imagine. We need to rest so that the body can be prepared for the day head.

There’s a long list stuff I could say help me relieve stress but with my current life, I think these two are always my go to. Stress is something we can’t do away with at some point in our lives and it is very important that we find ways and means to manage it and not cause harm to ourselves in one way or the other in the process.
