Stress Busters
Posted by fheenix33 on June 26, 2009
I’m always amused by magazine articles that offer advice on how to quickly ease stress. They offer insightful ways to instantly calm daily stress gently easing you into a peaceful state of mind. Some of the more comical suggestions I’ve read are ”roll up your area rugs and walk around your house barefoot like your on a beach house vacation.” For those of us who have a fully carpeted house and have never been to a beach house this suggestion proves to be absolutely useless.
“Blow up a balloon in slow puffs” was another option. Well, if you can get past the dizziness and the feeling that you’re going to faint, I’m sure this will work well for you. Another one on the list was “drink a large glass of cold water and go for a walk.” I was fairly optimistic about this one until I got down to the end of my road and had to rush home to use the little girls room. The urge to try that one again simply wasn’t there. My all time favorite suggestion was “crawl between your sheets after washing them with Tide Simple Pleasures Lavender.” I think it’s fair to say that most of us don’t have the option to walk away from our work or other daily obligations to do a load of laundry and take a nap.
