Feeling stressed? As the leader in optimizing light to transform and energize lives, iinnLight Technologies, Inc. recommends the following ten simple solutions for stress reduction:
- Exercise. Circulating blood is a great stress reliever. Step away from the stress of the moment and go for a brisk walk around the building or neighborhood. Ten to twenty minutes in fresh air can clear your head and help you prioritize. If you've got more time, working up a good sweat to elevate your endorphin levels will do wonders.
- Turn it off. Turn off the cell phone, the TV, the computer and close your eyes for five minutes. Spend the time in silent prayer or meditation. You won't believe the value of five minutes until everything is turned off.
- Express yourself. Get in touch with the person you trust the most by phone, or go for coffee or a walk together and share the issues which cause your stress. If you're open to feedback, your confidant may have an objective perspective on the situation that you hadn't previously considered.
- Visit the spa. Schedule a 30 minute lunch-time iinnLight Molecular Massage™, so you can rest, revitalize, listen to soothing music, and enjoy the proven beauty benefits of light therapy. If you have more time, there are usually additional 30 minute treatments available such as manicures, pedicures, and mini-facials.
- Write a quick note to a wounded soldier. So many Americans have been injured while defending our freedom - go to http://www.americasupportsyou.mil and click on the "Thank the Troops" link. Your gesture could be the bright spot to an American hero's day.
- Count your blessings. Write in your "Gratitude Journal" and focus on both big and small blessings in your life (health, family, love, a roof over your head, a tail-wagging dog, a hummingbird feeding). This will help put your current stress into perspective.
- Prioritize. Drop activities that don't make a positive impact on achieving short- or long-term goals, or improving your life.
- Cross one thing off your to-do list. Accomplish one small task - organizing your junk drawer, cleaning out a small closet, throwing in some loads of laundry. Sometimes the completion of a small task that's been lingering can take a huge load off.
- Laugh. It's true, laughing is often the best medicine. Enjoy a brief distraction and watch a favorite sitcom, read a humorous short-story book, or search funny video files on YouTube.
- Rest up. When you're feeling the stress, sometimes the best solution is to get plenty of sleep. You'll be better able to tackle the things that were stressing you out yesterday.
