Stress release and reset exercise. 10 Minutes
We known when we are stressed because we can feel it in the body. It starts as discomfort and then it builds from there.
There are two ways to diffuse stress in the moment.
Release it out the body
Reset, to avoid stress build up
Releasing stress in the body, requires us to relax. To calm the mind and let the body get to work healing.
The below exercise is a stress release and reset exercise. When you are feeling stressed or have experienced high stress, this helps to reset the biology.
The exercise is simple.
Deep breath in, tense, hold and release.
The exercise is 10 minutes but this exercise once you know how to use it is perfect for quick resets after high intensity experiences when you just need to “Shake it off” and move forward.
I regularly use this exercise after a long call, difficult conversations or before I pick my kids up.
The more use use this exercise, the greater the benefits. The longer you spend doing this exercise, the greater the benefits too.
