Stress....SUCKS!

One thing that remains that ALL of us can relate to is that

STRESS SUCKS!!

Yes it certainly does.

However, stress relief (when one can get it) is wonderful.  However when you on an extremely limited budget and your time is filled with many different things to do with very little down time....that relief is not so common.

Doing things that make you happy...shopping, hanging with friends, working out, reading, surfing the net, getting a massage, manicures/pedicures,  etc... are some of the most common solutions.

BUT...

What if you are on that budget?? What if you don't have time??  What do you do then??  How do you relieve the tension in your shoulders? the headache behind your eyes? etc???

A few simple things you can do that don't cost a thing.....


1. Breathe, when you feel tense, take 10 slow, deep breaths in through your nose, out through your mouth.

2. Touch, hug someone, hold hands, stroke a pet, make non-sexual physical contact with people, brush your hair.

3. Communicate, be honest with your Self and others. Ask for what you want. Express your true feelings when they occur.

...those things are easy (for the most part).




What do you do when you have no place to turn, no one to vent to, no where to get relief??  Life is hard enough, when stress is added in things can get overwhelming.
