Try one of these tension-tamers:
1. Walk. Get just 2 hours of brisk activity a week to see an improvement in your mental health. The benefits will be even better if you can walk outside.
2. Meditate on peace. Imagine being at a quiet beach or any place that would make you feel relaxed.
3. Turn off all the noise such as TV's, radios and your cellphone to help quiet your mind.
4. Eat better. Make sure you get all your vitamins & minerals for optimal mental health.
5. Relax your shoulders. You might not notice the tension in your shoulders until you purposely relax them
6. Say no. Don't over commit yourself, especially during this Holiday season.
7. Try yoga. Stretching and deep breathing will make you feel great
8. Learn a new thing. Taking time in a garden or learning woodworking can give you a sense of accomplishment and take your mind off stressful things going on.
9. Talk to someone. This will provide a release and a fresh prospective.
