Hello everyone, I welcome you all once again to my blog, and I am very excited to write and share my blog here in this community. It is a pleasure to have finally come up with this community initiative and I am hoping with the support of the community members and the Hive ecosystem at large, we will sustain this project.
In the recent world we live in, stress and worry have become a daily activity in our lives and there is a necessity that we try to find ways of eliminating or at least reducing that stress. As the saying goes “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” tells us to always prioritize breaks and time off in our work to refresh our brains and minds. In this post, I will share some tips and techniques to help improve the overall well-being of man. The main focus is relaxation and I would teach some of the techniques one can follow to control the side effects of stress.
But before I share these techniques, let’s quickly have a look at some of the benefits of relaxation techniques. First of all, yes it helps to reduce stress and anxiety. Relaxation as we all know helps the brain and the body to be calm which tends to reduce the feelings of anxiety and stress in our body. In addition, when there is less stress and a calm mind available, you will definitely have a sound sleep like a baby lol 😆, thus it enhances sleep quality.
Moreover, relaxation techniques help to improve physical health and enhance focus and concentration as the brain and mind don’t have stress and tension sitting inside. Also, as the production of neurotransmitters is increased due to these relaxation techniques, there is a better regulation of mood.
Now it’s time to look at some of these techniques and how one can incorporate them into his or her daily activities. The first one I would share is a deep breathing exercise, very simple right? This involves the focus on inhaling breaths via the nose and exhaling via the mouth slowly at a steady pace. Again, mindfulness meditation is another good method one can adopt. It involves taking a silent moment and only focusing on the present without any distractions or judgments and this helps the brain to calm thereby reducing stress. Lastly, Yoga and visualization can also be observed to help reduce stress and anxiety. Yoga comprises a combination of the above-mentioned techniques and physical postures to improve balance and relaxation.
To incorporate these techniques in your daily routine, I would advise you to start small, that is don’t overdo at the beginning, just 10 to 15 minutes of these exercises per day is good for a starter and gradually you can increase as you improve. Next, all these techniques require you to be in a quiet and calm environment where there is no distraction. In conclusion, make sure you make it your habit and don’t miss for two or three days without any tangible reason. You can consult your healthcare professional for further guidance on relaxation techniques to adapt to.
Thank you all for your time and attention in reading my post. I am looking forward to seeing you all in my subsequent posts.
