stressed.jpgListen, I know you’re really stressed up these days. It’s normal… weather is nasty, freezing cold, rains a lot, things like that. Stress level must be really high. It is with me, for sure. These techniques to eliminate stress factors are very simple and easy to implement, they make real miracles … Try it out!

Take ginseng!
The ginseng has been used for centuries to combat problems such as anxiety and tension. It helps the adrenal glands to function more effectively, which in turn improves the body’s ability to deal with stress. Take 1 or 2 pills a day, always after eating. Old people know what they’re doing!

Smile!
Try the smile therapy. Learn how to smile from the inside out and see the result. It only takes 5 minutes to make a list of things that can put a smile on your face. You’ll instantly feel more relaxed, so give a glance at the list every day. Boy, I have some funny memories and experiences myself! Haha! There!

Make love !
Did you see how I managed to slip the word S-E-X into the title of this post? Mmmweeeelll… it’s is said you should have at least 2 orgasms a week as the perfect recipe to keep calm. It has been proven that reaching the climax, no matter how you get it, unlocks the energy, revitalizes your body and leaves you relaxed. Heck… you know better!

 

Eat Healthy Food!
Food that contains tryptophan (an amino acid that helps calm the brain) increases the body’s ability to control negative moods. These types of food (such as cheese, bananas, turkey and yogurt) elevate serotonin levels, and make you feel serene and happy. It’s like eating half a kilo of chocolate at once… only you don’t. Get me?

Get some physical contact!
The caressing, hugging and physical contact in general drive the brain to release chemicals such as serotonin and dopamine. It’s funny, I know, but it’s true, as it lowers the level of cortisol, the stress hormone, and reduces tension. Hug your boyfriend, a friend, a pet… always working! My poor two kitties know best!

Weave!
I am not joking! It has been descovered that weaving makes heart beat slower and helps lowering blood pressure. Its the soothing effects of the matching repetitive movements that relax your body and mind. And you get the benefit of having something cool in your wardrobe in the end! Haha!

So there! Now you don’t have the right to say you’re stressed anymore!
