Today’s Motivation – Patience

Patience

“But, I want it now!” “We have a deadline to meet!” “Ugh, this slow traffic is killing me!” “Hurry up, we’ll be late.” “I’ve got to tweet that now.” “Can you believe it took 90 seconds in the mircrowave to heat my coffee?” “I’ve been online for a day and I’m not making any money.”

We all want it yesterday. The pace of life seems to have sped up, stressed up. To what end? A rush to the grave?

“The key to everything is patience. You get the chicken by hatching the egg, not by smashing it.”

Today’s Motivation - The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – R is for Relaxation

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – R is for Relaxation

Anybody out there a wee bit stressed these days? You can certainly feel stressed mentally, but whether you can feel it or not our bodies hold tension, stress and anxiety within.

Relaxation is the release of tension and a return to equilibrium. Relaxation is a feeling of calm in body and mind. It is important to note that it is a learned technique which can be used in stressful situations and everyday life to reduce tension and increase control.
Relaxation will help you to:
·    think better and enjoy improved concentration.
·    feel calmer, happier and more energetic.
·    experience less discomfort.
·    improve your body’s efficiency by decreasing heart rate, blood pressure, breathing rate and muscle tension.
·    enjoy more restful sleep.
·    increase your feeling of control of your environment.

Relaxation has no side effects, feels good and costs nothing.

Tips to promote relaxation
·    set aside a regular time to relax each day.
·    choose a quiet place.
·    wear loose, comfortable clothing and lie or sit in a comfortable position.
·    try not to practice relaxation techniques in bed, unless you intend going to sleep.
·    other thoughts may enter your mind - accept these thoughts and bring your concentration back to your breathing - do not be concerned or distracted.

Revive and relax, everyone needs it.
