Tips for summer stress relief from Health in Harmony’s friend Christopher Wesseling:

1. Make a half hour appointment with yourself at least once a week. If you find yourself getting caught up in work or other duties, make time just for you.

2. Find a place you enjoy being and visit it regularly. It may be a place with a view or a place that inspires you with its sense of beauty. Maybe it’s somewhere that just makes you feel relaxed and or inspired inside.  Enjoy the sense that comes with being there, take time out and relax.

3. Refocus and breath out the stress letting it go. If you find yourself getting caught up on something that is bringing on stress take a breath and focus on the sense of it coming in turning around and going out again. Do this for as long as is required to expell the stress.

4. Learn to ask for help. Two heads are better than one and often others see things we may have missed great to have the contribution.

5. Learn to meditate (classes are availabe with Evolve :-) ) and buy a book of inspirational thoughts and sayings to reflect on. Some time meditating or reading your book is a great way to start or end the day before going to bed.
