By Dee J Cohen

It's common to listen to folks speak about being wired, needing a mental health day off from work and being besieged by life's challenges. A short time ago in the news it was reported that somebody stabbed his leg so as to not go to work the following day. Unfortunately, we are not taught stress reduction tips in school and our anxiety usually simply builds up without a healthy release.

Though folks use music as texting as a method to relax, these ways also will result in increased anxiety. Sometimes hearing a song associated with a past relationship will produce a deep sadness and sense of being lost. Texting can also end up becoming quite nerve-racking as angry exchanges and disappointments will occur as things aren't going per our hopes or plans.

As an example, if you begin telling yourself that you will never get employment, nobody will ever love you or that you are a disappointment to your family take a deep breath. Do not keep feeding these thoughts, but instead see that this is a pattern that you simply fall into that won't healthy.

Slow, deep breathing with a brief pause after you inhale also once you exhale is helpful for quieting the mind. Strive to do this in a quiet spot some times a day. It can be done while you drive, sit on a subway or maybe during a break at work.

Physical exercise is a sensible method to get out of the thought patterns that rule us. Notice one thing you prefer and can continue in order to be consistent. For example, if you hate jogging or the gym, consider long walks outside or swimming.

Evaluate whether your friends are all good for you or if they will contribute to the problem. Do they fall into unhealthy habits that you also engage in? Do you pick folks that are critical or that always want to be bailed out?

Observe the aspects of your friendships that may would like to be discussed and changed. If certain relationships seem very damaging than question whether or not it is smart to have them in your life or if you are better off with somebody that nourishes your energy and spirit.
