In fact relaxation plays an importante role in my life. I practice yoga 6 days a week at home and I am fortunate enough for loving it. Yoga for me is like CBT and brushing my teeth, is already a part of my daily activities which makes my life better.
Because you wrote about book I remember that other activity that really relaxes me is reading books with other subjects than things I am used to to deal in my daily life.
Relaxation is very important in your everyday routine. Take regular, planned timeouts for yourself. Be realistic and honest, that inner regular need for a break to change your thoughts or environment and decompress at regular intervals should not be abandoned altogether, now should it?
Substitute a breathing exercise or something relaxing and self-loving when you feeling stressed. Listen to some music perhaps too, or just pick any form of relaxation, and do it for a couple of minutes each time, you may be pleasantly surprised at the results.
Practice relaxation techniques and adopt some into your routine. Successful people really do. Here’s a simple breathing exercise when you feel tense: With shoulders back and tummy in, inhale deeply for a slow count of five; exhale for a slow count of five. Do five of these at a time. This gives your body a break and re-boosts you!
You can also use relaxation techniques before bed. Hot bath or shower, stretches, good book, warm drink and breathing exercises can assist you in having a more restful sleep and have you wake refreshed for the next day. Studies show that at least 7 hours of sleep is needed to keep you on track and focused, so keep that routine and get your 7 hours in!
