Your Wellbeing: Stress Relief Techniques

There are many ways to relax and unwind; take some time out to focus on a healthier you.

It’s important to stay positive when faced with tough situations, more importantly every now and then we need a bit of a break.

-Read a book

A good book is a great way to escape from your daily life. Curl up with a blanket and hot tea, and you will be ready for an entertaining and relaxing afternoon.

– Yoga

Yoga is great for both your body and mind! Look up some meditation routines on Pinterest and try it out in the comfort of your own home.

-Run a bath

A hot bath is sure to relax your body and mind. Light some candles and create a playlist of your favourite tunes!

 – Create your own day spa

Treat yourself with DIY facemasks, hair serums and body scrubs. There is nothing better than feeling refreshed and revitalized after a great pamper session.

– DIY Manicure and Pedicure

Not all of us can afford regular visits to the nail salon. So why not create your very own salon at home? Place your feet in a footbath filled with sweet smelling body wash.

– Unplug all your electronic devices

Disconnect from your social media accounts, as these will only distract you. This is your time to focus solely on yourself so you don’t need anything getting in the way of that.

Make your own Mud Mask!

You will need:

  • 2-3 Tablespoons Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp. cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp. buttermilk
  • ¼-1/2 of a banana, mashed
  • 1 tsp. honey
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice

Mix all ingredients together and proceed to blend. The mask should be thick enough so that it does not run down your face. Apply a layer of the mask to your face and allow it to sit for 20-30 minutes. Wash it off with cool water.

Now all you have to do is clear your schedule, kick back and relax!
