Stress and tension have become a part of our lives today. But simple tips like practicing deep breathing exercises, eating healthy and meditating can cut out stress and help us feel relaxed.
- Deep breathing exercises - Take at least 10 breaths in and out. Hold that deep breath as long as you can then exhale. Do this every morning and whenever you feel stressed out.
- Exercise - Exercise is a great stress reliever. Go for a walk, get on the treadmill or your cycle, join a gym or go for jogging. Physical activities like these make you feel good about yourself and thus cut out stress.
- Eat healthy - Fresh fruits, juices, salads and veggies make you feel energised. Avoid a high fat, high carbohydrate diet that doubles your troubles.
- Get enough sleep - An eight hour sleep is must to keep your mind and body stress-free. But, be cautious of oversleeping as it depletes our energy.
