Here’s a simple stress management technique. If you find yourself experiencing a lot of stress and feel like you can’t handle things, try this simple method for calming yourself down that I learned from watching the Oprah show:
- Breath in through your nose for a count of four.
- Hold your breath for a count of seven.
- Breath out through your mouth for a count of eight.
Because you are taking twice as long to breath out and you are to breath in, your body automatically will begin to relax. It doesn’t even take very many repetitions of this stress management technique for your body to begin calming down. I have even had great success using this technique to help me deal with pain at the doctor’s or dentist’s offices.
Hope this simple stress management technique proves helpful to you!
