You, of course, object that in such a situation there is no time for different exercises. But the whole point is that if you spend a few minutes to relieve stress, you can later save effort. When you feel that the stress is getting out of your control, you need to do some withdrawal exercises:
1. Imagine if you are in nature, it can be a desert, near a lake, on the beach, in the mountains. Imagine for a moment, you take a leisurely stroll, look at the sky, what it looks like, listen to the sounds you hear sounds, what you smell, what the feet feel when they walk on stones or sand. With each step you relax more and more. Ahead of you is your house. Come to him, think about what he's made of, and how he looks. Include your imagination and describe everything in detail. Now go inside and go. Take a walk around the house, imagine how the rooms can look and see how many rooms. From these rooms, choose the one that you like and sit in an armchair in this room. Everywhere breathes peace, feel peace and joy from being in the house.
2. Imagine that there is a clock with one arrow and this arrow shows the level of your stress. When the arrow is at 12 o'clock, so it shows intense stress, you look like a stretched string, your whole body is tense. Now try to assess what stress you have at this moment, and try to translate the clock. To do this, imagine that the arrow moves down to 6 o'clock, and together with this arrow the stress decreases. Repeat this exercise five times.
3. Another exercise, you lie on the warm sand of the beach, near the water. Each wave is beating against the shore and the next wave is coming closer and closer to you. Now the waves roll you, before they return to the sea, and together with the waves you feel how stress, anger, and tension go away.
4. Now imagine that you are a feather that hovers above the ground. Together with the feather you descend and rise, become relaxed. And here you land carefully, touching the ground. You lie and feel very calm. But if, despite everything, you feel that relaxing gymnastics is an unreasonable luxury for you, inhale more deeply several times and read a positive mantra for yourself. And then get to work.
Skills to relieve stress
1. Relax your muscles. Say the word "soft" feel the softness in your imagination, imagine some soft things. Softness fills your whole body: feet, legs, hips, back, shoulders, neck and forehead. This will make the muscles relax. And even sitting at the table, you can easily relax the body in twenty seconds.
2. Note how the muscles that are used for breathing are relaxed.
The chest during breathing expands to the sides, behind and in front. Natural breathing easily fills the lungs and activates the entire body. Do not breathe deeply and naturally. Keep your mouth open and allow breathing to slow, make an even transition between exhalation and inspiration. Do this breathing for two minutes.
Give the brain rest
When your brain does not think about the future or the past, then you can avoid stress. Look in front of you, slightly down, without moving your eyes. In this position, determine the field of view, from top to bottom and from left to right. Do not focus on the subject, feel the entire field of view. At the same time, you will feel a little "detached". At the same time your mind will rest, as muscles do.
In conclusion, let's say that if you study the skills separately, you can practice them all at once, doing exercises to relieve stress. Then the process will become practical and soothing, it will take less than five minutes. These skills you must practice several times a day, and after each of the stresses you have suffered, you need to use them.
