How do you relax?

3/3/2020

It's funny because more often that not we do not think about ways in which we can relax but instead we can all think of a thousand ways in which we can fill our time.
In 2018 YouGov published statistics that stated "74% of UK adults have felt so stressed at some point over the last year they felt overwhelmed or unable to cope."
This shocking statistic shows that this really is an important area to address. 
​
What do you do to relax? 
This may just be a matter of some quiet time. Ideas include: 
  • reading a book
  • taking a bath
  • going for a stroll through the park and connecting with nature
  • journal
  • listen to music
  • meditation
  • stretching
  • close your eyes
  • dance
  • talk with a friend 

We all relax in different ways but it is something that is so useful for us all to make time for. And find your own favourite way to relax!

Why?
  • For out overall mental health and well-being
  • Improving productivity
  • Physically it can help to slow the heart rate, lower blood pressure, breathing rate slowed, improve digestion, reduce stress hormones, reduce muscle tension and chronic pain to name just a few. 

Action Point
Try and take 5 minutes each day for yourself, think of something that makes you calm and relax. There is no right or wrong answer, but rather what works for you.
