Tips for Relaxing @ Work


15 years ago 0 8760 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0

Members,

In the past week, we’ve been talking about stress management. Learning how to better manage sources of stress can help decrease the intensity of your craves. Here are a few tips to help you make the most of your break time:

°          Practice your deep breathing. Deep breathing improves circulation and eases muscle tension.

°          Check your e-mail. Subscribe to a messaging service that will send you daily jokes or inspirational quotes. A few funny or inspiring words can help lift your spirit and gain perspective

°          Turn on your radio: Classical music has been shown to induce relaxation. Have it on in the background or tune in online. Many radio stations now have live feeds via the internet.

°          Stretch! Take a few minutes in between long tasks to take a stretch break. It can help increase alertness, improve blood flow and relieve tension.

How do you bring your stress levels down at work?
