3 FAST STRESS-RELIEVING STRATEGIES

1. Pay special attention to your neck and shoulders
- Raise your arms above your head and stand up straight and bring your chin to your chest as you bend your head forward.
- Clasp your hands behind your head and gently press it forward until your neck stretches a little.
- mindfulness and body awareness
2. Deep breaths and visualisations of the flow
- Imagine the oxygen flowing into your heart as you inhale deeply for around five seconds.
- exhale for approximately five seconds, envisioning it flowing out.
- Continue to breathe in this pattern while imagining anything that makes you happy - a pleasant scent, for example.
3. Use your senses to their full potential.
- It's soothing to rub your hands together and then place them over your eyes.
- Feel your stiff neck muscles relax as you massage them.
- Squeezing the little ball can be soothing, and you can do it under your desk where no one will see you.
