Stress Buster Alert – 6 Ways to Ease Anxiety
Posted by Elizabeth March on 12th Nov 2018
At one point or another, you are probably going to have to deal with anxiety or stress in your life. Whether it be work, finances, relationships, or health – stress can really take its toll on your body and your mind. If you are feeling under the weather or a little anxious, you are not going to be performing at your best or firing on all cylinders, and this is why it is so important to try and keep anxiety or stress to a minimum.
Combat Stress, Naturally
There is no single approach you can take that will work for every individual when we address the best ways to combat stress or anxiety. So, a one-size-fits-all answer to this question is just not feasible. Every person will have their likes, dislikes, and preferences. Based on research and a number of cumulative views online, here are six of the best ways you can ease anxiety in your life.
- Yoga and Meditation
Anyone who does either or any of these will argue they are different. However, the core principle they both have in common in their inane ability to help you relax and switch-off from the outside world. Doing either one or both should help you shut-out and shut-off any outside worries, and hopefully leave you feeling relaxed and calm. One of the key functions they both share is their encouragement of deep and controlled breathing. So, if you cannot make it out the house and don’t have the time to do daily sessions, simply taking some time-out, to breathe and focus your mind elsewhere can have an immensely beneficial effect.
- Be Positive
The power of the mind is truly phenomenal. That age-old saying ‘mind over matter’ is very apt to raise in this post. Once you start out on a cycle of negative thinking, it is often hard to stop. Alternatively, try looking at things a little differently; are there any positives you can bring to the forefront of your mind instead of getting bogged down with a cycle of unproductive thinking that simply leads you back to where you started?
- Get Prepared
One of the most compelling factors of anxiety or stress is the journey into the unknown. What’s the best way to deal with that uncertainty head-on? Be ready. If you are worried about something to do with work, health, money, or any other area of your life, plan out the worst-case-scenario, and get ready for that to happen. Doing this will help to alleviate any worry that you might be associating with the problem at large.
- Exercise
There is proof that demonstrates the point that exercise can help to relieve you of stress. It’s not just that you can truly switch-off and focus on the task in hand when you are running, cycling, swimming or at the gym; two specific chemicals, namely; cortisol and norepinephrine are two well-known chemicals that can cause stress. When you work-out, the levels of these are naturally reduced in the body. Of equal importance is the release of specific chemicals such as endorphins, the release of which may help you to feel better and happier overall.
- Rest Well
Getting a good night’s sleep is good for so many things. However, often during times of stress, people will find it hard to sleep. A vicious cycle erupts and before you know it, your energy levels are depleted, and your body is not able to cope as well as it would normally, giving you a weaker immune system and causing you to become run-down.You must find a way to make sure you get a good night’s rest, without that, everything else will become harder.
