Stress Management Tips and Self Help Tricks to Fix a Bad Day
When you are having a really bad day in the office or at home, you can use these self help
stress management tips to improve your attitude and provide a lift in your daily motivation at the same time.
You cant always control what happens in your day, but you CAN control your attitude and response or reaction, to what happens in your day.
So consider how you would react to a negative event happening today: What do you do? Instead of sulking around and getting angrier by the minute, you need to find ways to somehow lift your spirits.
Try taking time out to listen to some music. Put on your earphones and lose yourself in the song. A slower tempo is said to have a relaxing effect while a heavier sound will let you work through your anger.
You know that its impossible to feel bad when you’re laughing. Even on a really bad day, there’s always someone who’s extremely funny to get you to smile.
While doing this, make sure that you switch on your desk lamp. Harsh overhead lighting amplifies stress and gets you more annoyed.
Yes, you do need to deal with your problems but while you are in the process of working through your problems, you can also surround yourself with yellow and orange.
Some experts believe that people become more joyful when they surround themselves with warm bright colors. This could possibly be because they remind us of the sun. If you don’t have any garment in these colors, pick up flowers and decorate your home in these hues.
As for your outfit, just make sure that you love what you wear. Everyone has something that wins positive feedback from her friends. Change into it and enjoy the ego boost even for just for a while.
Visualize your 'happy place' as well. Maybe it’s a tropical beach or a cabin up in the mountains, but whatever the location, close your eyes and try to conjure up the image in your mind.
Let your imagination run wild and know no boundaries. Changing the wallpaper deep inside your head will leave you instantly feeling better.
For your meals, you can try snacking on citrus fruits. They say that this really improves your mood. And because you need time to peel them, you’ll likely eat it slowly and not pig out. You can savor on the fresh feeling for a longer period of time.
Eating some Brazil nuts every day will also help to keep you calm and in a good mood in stressful times.
And while doing all these activities, try to breathe away bad vibes. Inhale slowly and deeply and try to remove all the negative energy when you blow out the air from your mouth. In turn, inhale the good feeling and fill yourself with the feeling of optimism.
When things just don’t work the way you want them to, it also helps to take a step back and remove yourself from the situation, even if just for the moment. Even trying the old fashiond "count to 10 before you react" can help to prevent some damaging words or actions that you would regret later.
This doesn’t mean that you’re running away from your problems. It simply means that you are trying to clear the clutter from your head so that you are able to deal with things in better perspective.
Let nature help you to heal and relax. You need to dilute and wash away the toxins of old adrennalin that probably flushed through your system when disaster struck, and is now stuck in your musckes. Flush it out or your muscles will be aching tomorrow. Stop gritting your jaw and grinding your teeth!
Take a walk in the park and let the fresh rate lower your heart rate. Diffuse the pessimistic outlook and deal with your problems when you aren’t too emotional. These little tips are there to help you become a better and more relaxed person.
