Given a lot of things that needs to be done and too little time to accomplish everything, entrepreneurs must always intend to take even a little time out.
Below are some simple yet very effective ways on how to minimize stress:
- Breathe
Breathing is a natural thing to us but in here, we refer to breathing that is deliberate and unhurried.
To do this right, place your hand on your abdomen, right under your belly button.
Hold it for one or two seconds and breathe out slowly.
Perform this for more than a few minutes and you'll become aware of how your heart rate slows down.
Doing this will make you feel refreshed and more relaxed.
- Visualization
When you're seeing the picture of the peaceful and comforting scene, take in even the smallest of details like certain smells and sounds.
Spend a few moments everyday doing this while breathing deeply and slowly.
- Smile
Scientists have said that smiling triggers our limbic system and make us more relaxed and calm.
Doing this may make you appear silly but it will actually make you feel a lot better.
- Let go of the stress.
The jaw is among them.
To release the tension in that part, try to do this exercise.
Put your index fingers' tips on your jaw's joints precisely in front of your ears.
Clamp your teeth together and take a deep breath.
Hold it for a few seconds and then utter 'Ahh...
' as you breathe out.
Do this all over and over again for several minutes.
- Create a mantra.
It must be short and easy to remember, and must have enough ability to boost your hope and mood to cope with nerve-racking situations.
Whenever you're stressed, say your mantra about ten times and notice how it makes you feel more collected and calm.
Never let stress ruin you.
Spend a few moments each day to look after yourself and free yourself from stress.
You will feel much better and so will your business!
