How do you de-stress?

share this post

Picking up tennis has been one of my biggest blessing. Playing helps to release tension (and it’s fun!)

Our bodies are not made to sit for 8 hours – absorbing stress, tension, at times shock and heavy emotions to deal with behind the table.

There are many ways to release pressure out of the body. The easiest is probably deep breathing or sighing. Rolling your shoulder or rotating your neck are also relatively quick. Try tapping on your hands, neck, chest, head, and shoulders. If you have 5 – 10 mins to spend, consider stretching, walking (go get tea or coffee!), dancing to a song (potential bonus: elevated mood). Bigger “ticket items” would be nature walk, physical workout (indoor/ outdoor).

What would you consider doing in the next few days to move your body?

Curious to hear what works for you, please share.
