Modern era has come to us with many kinds of luxuries and it has made our lives a lot more easier in many ways. But it has also made our lifestyles faster as well as more complex than before. Unfortunately to cope with these faster lifestyles our lives have become full of stressful situations.
I think most of us at many points of lives become stressed. The reasons may be different for every individuals depending on their age, sex, social & economic status and so on. I said most of us, because there are still many people you will see around you who are blessed with inner peace and don’t get stressed easily.
There is no specific place or time where you might get stressed. You may get stressed at your office or you may get stressed in your bedroom or you may get stressed in a shopping mall or even in a party. This stress holds us back from advancing to face the challenges of life. It holds us back to achieve inner peace. It holds us back to think anything with clarity. It holds us back to be more productive in every areas of life. And not to mention stress acts as a silent killer of the wellness of our body in the long run.
As our lifestyles promote stress to us so it is not easy to get rid of stressful situations completely. But with various kind of techniques you can release the stress and feel better. More precisely i can say that stress management can be done with these techniques.
And in this post i am going to give you the quickest and easiest technique i know to release stress within minutes. This incredibly easy technique can be applied almost everywhere and at any time. I have applied it many times and as i found it helpful i just thought why not share it with everyone else. Without any further talking let me tell you the technique:
Basically there are only two steps in the technique. Both steps are easy to apply and takes very short time.
First step: When you feel stressed just try to get some space where you can breathe easily and freely. If you don’t have this situation then don’t bother. Be where you are. It doesn’t matter if you are sitting, lying or standing. This technique will work in each position, but will work best if you can sit or can lie down with your eyes closed. And don’t bother about the closing of the eyes too
It works also when your eyes are open.
Second step: After finalizing your place start to breathe deeply. After breathing in hold the air inside for 5-10 seconds. After 5-10 seconds breathe out at slower rate than the breathing in. These 3 steps all together make one breathing cycle.
During each breathing cycle when you breathe in try to imagine that you are surrounded by positive & healing energy and while you take air inside you try to imagine that you are taking those positive and healing energy inside of you.
During holding air inside of you try to imagine that, those positive and healing energy are spreading inside of you and making you energized and charging you likeĀ a battery
And at last during breathing out in each breathing cycle try to imagine that all the negative energy and stresses are leaving your body and mind with the air.
Continue doing the breathing cycles for sometimes and your stress will be much lower than before. If done with concentration you will get relief from the stress with a very short time.
In fact the time may vary with every individuals, but it won’t vary too much like you are needing 2 minutes to relax and another one is needing 10 minutes to relax. I think you have got my point.
Note: Please note that you can still get good results when you are not imagining as i outlined above. But it may take a longer to get the result. I have tried it with both eyes open & closed, without imagining & with imagining. I got faster and better results when i could close my eyes and imagining the energy things.
Anyway hope you can practice this technique easily and it helps you a lot whenever you need to release stress.
Practice this extremely easy & quick technique and make your life a lot stress free than before.
I wish you a better health.
