Stress Reduction Techniques That Work!
Lin Northrup, M.Ed., R.H.
Wisdom Way Healing Arts
- Breathing – When we’re stressed blood vessels
to the brain constrict and the brain gets less oxygen causing
confusion, lack of clarity, apathy, fatigue.
Abdominal breathing
(at least 3 deep breaths) Imagine there’s a balloon in your
belly. Inhale, let your belly fill with air. Hold the breath
for several counts.
Exhale, letting the belly deflate. Repeat.
2-8-4 Breathe in (2), Hold
(8), Exhale (4)
2-8-8 Breathe in (2), Hold
(8), Exhale (8)
- Water (90%) brain is water. The brain must be
hydrated for peak performance
and health. Body systems are electrical/chemical. Water removes
toxins,
increases memory/focus, reduces stress, increases energy.
- Relaxation music to elicit the alpha state -
20 minutes daily
- Walking/Nature - Your lymphatic system is key
to boosting your immune system.
It is activated by movement. Nature's vibration grounds and
balances our
electromagnetic energy systems.
- Sea Salt Baths - One cup sea salt in a bath -
20 minutes. Releases stress and
toxins from your energy field.
- Intuition - Tune into your intuition (inner
voice) for gaining clarity about life
decisions. As you develop more confidence in its wisdom, your
vitality and inner
peace grow.
- Yoga - Opens the energy pathways and enhances
your life force.
- Meditation - Reconnects you to the inner
peace of your true nature.
