Stress relief - focus on the now

Focus on the Now 

 ______________________A Stress relief tip________________________
 
Thinking about the next ten items on your list of things to do is enough to cause anyone stress. That's why it's vital that you focus on only one thing at a time. 

Allowing only one task into your thoughts at a time - the one thing you are involved with right now - will improve your productivity, decrease mental mistakes, and relieve your mind of feeling overwhelmed as well as your body of feeling physically stressed out and drained.

Try the music below while you are working to improve your focus.

Hold a Pencil between Your Teeth

Hold a Pencil between Your Teeth

 ______________________A Stress relief tip________________________ 

A recent study at the University of California found most people have a set of 'smile muscles' which, when activated, send signals to your brain that you are happy. In turn, your brain releases the chemical that register happiness. 

In fact, you don't even need to personally feel happy at the moment to create the internal response of happiness. Simply holding a pencil between your teeth can be enough to trick your brain into thinking you are happy and releasing the corresponding chemicals into your system.

Wake Up with the Sun

Wake Up with the Sun 

  ______________________A Stress relief tip________________________


 You're sound asleep and dreaming peacefully. And then, out of nowhere, you're shocked awake by the screeching of an buzzing alarm. It's easy to see why such a routine can get things started off on the wrong foot. Instead of being startled every morning, try using natural light to wake you up. 

Studies have shown that the light of dawn alerts your body to wrap up your dreams, raises your body temperature, and begins releasing the hormones you need to function throughout the day. So leave the blinds open tonight and wake up with the sun. 

(Afraid of oversleeping? Keep an alarm nearby just in case.)

A Beneficial Thought: Making It Happen

What exactly is the difference between wishing for something and actually making it happen?

The answer is simple: belief.

When you believe that something is possible, you’ll take action to make it happen. You’ll push forward through obstacles because you know you can…

And that means that anything you believe can happen, CAN HAPPEN.

The secret, is to tear away the limiting barriers your mind puts up against the things that you truly want.

Then, with all your heart you must add strong belief to the mix. The same way you believe the sun will rise tomorrow, you must believe in the things that you truly want.

That's the first, and most crucial step in all great manifestation.

So, my question to you is…. What do you truly believe?

Declutter your mind


So do you ever get overwhelmed with all the jobs you need to do? 

All you need is a spare 10 minutes and a pen and paper. 
For 10 minutes write down absolutely EVERYTHING on your mind so its a complete brain dump. The list is completely private so the whole point of it is to completely clear your head of all those nagging little thoughts that clutter so much of your head-space.

Put down everything; worries with work, how much your partner is annoying you, a family member you've fallen out with, that bill you've got to pay, getting the car serviced.......anything and everything you can thing of.

When you feel like you've done that, just go down the list and cross off anything that is outside your control. For example, you can't control the world's economy so make a point of scrubbing it off your list as feeling bad about it will just create negative energy and get you down. Make a mental note to yourself and say 'I'm done worrying about this'. It is such a liberating exercise and makes you feel so much better.

Next put a star next to all the things you do have control over. Note the 10 most important of the items with a star next to them and JUST DO IT as these are the very things that are stopping you progressing in your life.

Only take the 10 most important and make sure that they are based on priority NOT time. 
Start on the hardest tasks first and then the rest will be so much easier.
Action may not always bring happiness...
but there is no happiness without action.
Benjamin Disraeli
