Stress: Reduce Seasonal Stress

Filed Under Emotional Healing, Life Coaching, Mental Healing

Happy Holidays! 

This holiday time of year can be very stress filled.  Here are four effective ways to reduce your stress and start to relax this Holiday Season:

1.  Meditate, even if it’s for only a few moments a day. You can relax and reduce stress in this way almost anywhere, even while taking a stroll around Meditation for Stress Reliefyour neighborhood. Which leads me on to…

2.  Take a walk! While you do so, take in all the sounds and sights around you and really appreciate them.  This is another great way to focus out rather than in; it is an excellent way to relax and keep yourself in a peace-filled, stress-free state.

3.  Practice positive self-talk.  Write a seasonal holiday affirmation for yourself such as ‘I am handling the holidays calmly and with ease.’ Stick notes up around the house with your affirmation(s) and keep a copy in your pocket to refer to whenever you want to relax more and release stress more quickly.

4.  Use positive visualization to see yourself easily handling seasonal holiday situations which might prove stressful; such as, a party or family gathering. Imagine yourself easily able to relax and remain stress-free throughout the get-together!
