Quick Organisational Tips To Help Reduce Your Stress


                                               
                             
Hi and thank you for joining me on the Under Blue Skies blog.  This week I wanted to stay within the framework of "Organisation" and so I decided that I would look at a few tips that can help you reduce your stress.

Manage your time.

Create some small routines.  These will help lower your stress because you will have some predictable things happening in your day.

Your schedule does not have to be rigid.  Create some short to do lists for the day and say (aloud) what you are grateful for every day. 

Prepare Well

Each evening spend 10 minutes or so preparing, write down meal plans and make packed lunches.  Decide what you are going to wear and make sure that everything is in one place.  Arrange to have meeting with one or more friends who make you laugh.

Enjoy Small Things

Focus on the details of those everyday things you do and slow down, make certain that you enjoy the current moment.

Move About Regularly

Taking regular exercise goes a long way to reducing stress and improving general health.  Small periods of activity work very well if you are not able to get to do a full workout. 

Walking for 10 minutes can be just as good as a 45 minute workout in reducing (or even relieving) anxiety

Laugh Often

A good laugh releases endorphins and improves both your mood and your immune health.  Laughter lowers stress hormone levels (cortisol and epinephrine) and helps improve the management of physical pain.

Enjoy Nature and Being Creative

Spending time outdoors is a natural antidepressant plus natural sounds, smells and colours can have a calming effect.

Draw, paint, listen to music or spend time dancing.

Controlled Breathing

5 minutes of slow regular breathing will reduce stress, lower your heart rate and your blood pressure

Daily Meditation

There is a lot of mis-information about meditation – you do not have to learn to meditate, it is a skill that we all have! 

When you take a bath and just thing of nothing – that is meditating

When you lose yourself in soft music – that is meditation!

Keep A Journal

Keeping a few simple notes allows you to reflect and focus your thoughts.  The entries can be as long or as short as you need them to be (there is no right or wrong).

You can cover positive things, thoughts, feelings, achievements and all the little things that happen that have meaning for you

Sleep Well!
