10 Quick and Easy Ways to Releive Stress

Stress seems to be just an everyday part of our lives. We get up in the morning and not stopping until we lay down at night. Sometimes we do not even stop, even when we sleep. We will be up later so we should ensure we get "everything" done. We feel the need to keep going and going. We rarely accept our limitations and feel very angry or depressed when we are unable to perform what we believe is necessary. One of the keys to relieving stress is to evaluate our beliefs about what should be done. If you really feel something needs to be done is a good idea to look at why it is so important and be open to any adjustments we can do. Maybe a family member had a different situation in life has slowed down to faith. Maybe it really does not matter that much in your situation. We have to make choices about what we can reasonably do and be able to emotionally get rid of what we cannot. Discover your priorities on the deepest level and choose your activities based on these values. It is too easy to let life run us. We are always waiting for a better time, slower time or more time but it never comes. We have to make these choices every day. What do you really believe in? Are your priorities, your family and make your actions reflect that? Or are they something else and make your actions reflex that? If your choice does not seem to reflect your values then you need to look at yourself and see why.

Here are 10 helpful ideas to help you relieve stress in your life.

1. Write down your priorities in life. Think long and hard about what you really want.

2. Choose your daily activities to support these priorities.

3. Let go of something you cannot find time to do that is low on your list.

4. Forgive yourself for not being able to do everything.

5. Focus on the positive things you have done especially in relation to your priorities.

6. Give yourself permission to go to bed a little earlier.

7. Learn to say no when you're on empty itself.

8. Take time every day for quite some time.

9. Find a quick activity such as listening to a favorite song every day to help you re-energize.

10. Find someone worse then you and give little time or attention to them.

Sometimes we need a little help getting things in order and know what it is that we really want and feel about our lives. Consulting a second as a Life Coach can help you to look outside to see what may need adjusting. Sometimes something in the past to be treated and released. Get help from others can help us to see clearly and help us focus on what we really want and need. By putting our lives in accordance with our values and morals we automatically relieve a lot of stress in our lives. We are then able to release the judgments of others and ourselves. We will feel pride and excitement to move in a positive direction. Start today with one thing on the list, and build on it every day.
