Do you get stressed just thinking of how stressed you actually are..? Stressed is such a controversial subject and has many various reasons and opinions.... however I want to share a few basic techniques that will aid to destressing.

  1. Socialise
    Surround yourself with friends & family, as isolation will amplify your inability to cope. Socializing and connecting will help boost your brain health, lower your risk of dementia and improve blood pressure.

  2. Don't dwell on the negative
    Its natural to jump to the worst-case scenario in an upsetting situation. Instead take a deep breath, silence your inner critic and look at the situation from a different perspective.

  3. Be assertive
    Indecision prevents you from taking action, causing a loss of sense of control... impacting stress.

  4. Eat a healthy diet and cut back on alcohol
    Its just that simple!

  5. Get good sleep
    Lack of sleep can make you angry , moody and vulnerable.

  6. Try Yoga
    Its benefits are plentiful. It creates energy and improves stamina whilst keeping the body flexible and regulates the metabolism.

Have a Stress free Weekend.
