Let's talk about stress! We all experience it from time to time. But there are things we can do to relax our body and mind more, and to protect our body and brain from the negative effects of (chronic) stress. So here are my favorite habits!
PLEASE NOTE: I'm not a doctor and this video isn't medical advice. I'm sharing my own thoughts and experiences, in the hopes that they'll be helpful for others too. I recommend talking with a health care professional, if you feel that would be helpful for you.

Greetings Vera. These are some great tips for reducing stress. Daily, I go for a walk in nature and do bodyweight exercises. I put on some acoustic guitar/piano music and focus on caring for my plants which relaxes me and elevates my mood. Before work, I meditate and then enjoy either a matcha latte or green tea. A while ago I made sure to limit the use of my phone by removing the search engine from the home screen, deleting all social media apps and reducing notifications. Currently, I'm focusing on my sleep hygiene with quieter evenings, a therapeutic skincare routine and using a weighted blanket for a deeper sleep.

I have a few. I have a very high anxiety disorder so some of the steps that I took is a must for my mental well-being. It is not for everyone but I would like to share anyway. I have blocked and deleted people from my phone (and life) , those who doesn't contribute positivity and happiness. That includes family members. The other ways for me to relax and center myself is to write with my fountain pen and notebook. I just write anything and everything almost daily. I don't want to keep a strict daily schedule because that also can cause stress for me. Most of all, I make sure I get hugs and kisses from husband and children a few times daily. That helps a lot.

Agree with everything you shared today. Something i use daily is yoga nidra it's only 20 minutes - a guided meditation you might call it. I do it before going to sleep and like in your quote if there's a lot that's going on i do it twice a day! First thing in the morning as well. There are lots of different folk doing this so you can see who's voice you like the sound of to practice with. It's been a game changer for me. It's been scientifically proven to give your brain the deep rest it needs. Big love to you from Scotland❤

Thank you for another fantastic video! 💚 I usually go for nature walks to de-stress & relax 🌿 Living in Canada is such a privilege, since we have amazing national parks, great ecology etc I also enjoy listening to relaxing music 🎵 , like classic music or various meditation sounds. Having herbal tea ☕️ is another relaxation technique I use. I focus fully on the process, the smells, the sound, the colour of my drink… and try to be present in the moment. Spending time with my pet 🐈‍⬛ or taking care of plants 🌱 are awesome for mental health and stress relief too! Doing art therapy 🎨 and journaling 📓 are also fantastic! 🥰

I love all of your videos, but this one really came at the perfect time:) I have been overwhelmed in the last couple of months, lot of stress, unable to sleep, all the works. Now finally it seems I'm able to wind down slowly, such practices are a great help - even if I know most of them, this video is the gentle push to do the ones I currently skip, like meditation. So many thanks Vera!

@DNA350ppm Ай бұрын

I agree and know the feeling. For me it is important to really abstain from unsorted news. I take part in the world ver consciously, but I don't want all horrible things to invade me, so I support good causes for instance, but I don't consume disasters - I know that negative news sell better than positive, because we are easily shocked. But looking up good news is a counteract that has good ripple effects. When we care for ourselves we also improve the world, don't we, because we give others the right to care for themselves, too. Sleep is first and most important, or our brains stop working, you don't have to sacrifice yourself to that degree that you get a stroke, remember. Overwhelm drives to exhaustion, I know - you have the right to withdraw from it. A firm "no!" is often a very positive action to take. We shouldn't be guilty for it, but I have to practice to feel that good conscience for having my boundaries. All the best wishes and hope you get a tranquile summer season!

What also helps me is excercise, going for a walk or a bicycle ride or spend time with our cats.

But I found myself missing your videos, which I can still take away tips from and apply to my own life, even if not everything is applicable. So, I have resubscribed 😊

Thank you so much for the helpful tips, Vera! I'll have to try out Ikkyu some time. I've been preparing to move this year to a new home, so there have been times where my brain feels like it is going a thousand miles per second. Lately, it has been really helpful for me to take a short break every hour or so because of my chronic pain (still recovering months after having covid). Something that helps a lot and that I try to do at least once a day is to place a damp towelette on my head and just lay in bed for a few minutes with no distractions. It really does help you to just shift your focus back to the present. Then, I'll continue with what I'm working on with a refreshed mind. Definitely recommend! :)
