12 Stress Management Techniques

*Spirituality is a state or quality of being spiritual. It is pure, holy, relating top matters of sacred nature, not worldly, ecclesiastical, possessing the nature or qualities of a spirit.

The spiritual level holds the entire human person together. Spirituality carries with it the meaning of man’s relationship with a world beyond what is felt by the senses – a world beyond himself, others and the environment-but which somehow gives meaning, purpose and coherence to one’s own existence. It also points to a relationship with a supernatural being which may or may not be articulated by the individual. Is it the spiritual level that gives something to live for.

Meditation is a way of reaching the world beyond the senses. It is a very effective method of relaxing thing for a sustained period of time. It gives the body time to relax and recuperate and clear away toxins that may have built up through stress and mental or physical activity. Meditation can have the following effects:
-lower blood pressure
-slows breathing
-helps muscles relax
-gives the body time to eliminate lactic acid and other waste products
-eliminates stressful thoughts
-helps with focus and concentration
-reduces stress headaches

*Self Awareness means knowing one’s self, getting in touch w/ one’s feelings, or being open to experiences. It increases sensitivity to the inner self and relationship w/ the world around.

*Scheduling. Managing time really refers to managing one’s self in such a way as to optimize the time available in order to achieve gratifying results.

*Siesta means taking nap, short rest, a break or recharging of “battery” in order to improve productivity. It helps relax the mind and body muscles.

*Stretching

*Sensation Techniques. The sense of touch is a powerful and highly sensitive form of communication. It is a natural reaction to reach out and touch whether to feel the shape or texture of something or to respond to another person, perhaps by comforting them. Massage helps to sooth away stress, unknotting tensed and aching muscles, relieving headaches and helping sleep problems. Massage is also invigorating; it improves the functioning of many of the body’s system, promotes healing and tones muscles, leaving w/ a feeling of renewed energy.

*Sports

*Socialization (esp.: in a dance, man enjoys his body’s love & expresses gesture & releases tension through rhythmic movement.)

*Sounds and Songs. Music adds to the quality of life of a person. It provides a medium of expression for thoughts and emotions.

*Speak to me. Communication is at a goal, so it must remain open until the goal is reached. Talking to someone when feeling overwhelmed or unable to deal w/ stress or feeling “helpless” is often the best way of coping w/ stress.

*Stress Debriefing (esp.: giving advice to others)

And, SMILE!!!
