Stress is the root of all diseases. When the body and mind are hardened and tense due to stress, the weak part starts to hurt. However, since each person has different stress factors and coping strategies, there is no one right way to relieve stress. In particular, chronic stress adversely affects physical and mental health, but it is difficult to change the environment that is a stressor. The most effective countermeasure is to change the way you respond to stress. Discover three of the simplest ways to relieve chronic stress.
◆ Listen to ‘music’ that makes you feel at ease
Music can be an effective means of relieving muscle tension and finding peace of mind. The music you like brings emotional experiences and psychological stability and makes you feel comfortable. In particular, choose an old song that evokes nostalgia and listen to it with concentration. It is more effective if you pay attention to the lyrics while listening, and sing or hum along. It helps relieve stress by relaxing the mind along with emotional warmth.
◆ Relieve body tension with ‘muscle relaxation’
People who suffer from physical tension due to stress may benefit from progressive relaxation or other techniques. Progressive relaxation is the continuous contraction and relaxation of the body until the muscle is relaxed. For example, if you have stiff shoulders, raise your shoulders up to your ears to add pressure to your neck and shoulders. Hold that position for regarding 30 seconds and then lower it to relax the muscles as your shoulders fall. Repeat that once or twice. These techniques include yoga, stretching, and jogging.
◆ Empty your mind while taking a slow ‘deep breath’
Focusing on the inside and clearing the mind can lead to serenity. Breathing is the most important means of emptying the mind. Sit quietly for a few minutes and breathe slowly from the time you inhale until you exhale completely. It’s a short break to help you focus when your mind is confused. When you breathe slowly and focus on your inhalation and exhalation, your mind naturally becomes calm and comfortable before you know it.
