Well being on the run!

In my previous post I told you that I had attended a Well being Symposium at the weekend.  It is a wonderful gift to give yourself, take a day off just for you and concentrate on your own health, well being and emotional state.  However....in this fast paced, busy life that we all lead, taking a whole day out can seem like a far off dream.  I decided to research some quick fixes for well being on the run and came across a list of tips from Carole Fogarty.

Make you well being your priority each day, when you feel well, balanced and in harmony everyone around you benefits. You deserve to feel wonderful inside and out!  Here are the tips from Carole:

1: Today is the best day of my life ever - Write it onto a post-it note and then stick onto your coffee mug:
2: The essential oil - May Chang - encourages you to play more. Put some into your oil burner at the home/office so working becomes more joyful
3: Stretch reminder: Okay, off your chair, stand on your tippy toes and reach for the sky. Twinkle twinkle little star. Jiggle it all about
4: Ward off energy vampires by placing a small piece of the crystal black tourmaline in your bra or pocket. It transmutes negative energies.
5: Time for hand yoga. Hold your ear lobes between thumb and index finger, gently pull down. Feel release of stuck energy from your head, neck
6: Time for some focused breathing to slow down the mind and bring your awareness back into your body. Just observe your breath for 2 minutes.
7: Tension buster: Open mouth, stick out tongue, further, now say ah! It releases tension in jaw and neck, encourages relaxation in face and cheek muscles
8: Power snack while at your computer: Eat natural raw almonds, they are magnesium rich which encourages your nervous system and adrenals to relax.
9: Live gently today. Talk gently, think gently, eat gently. Be gentle to yourself and other and watch the stress dissolve.

I hope you adopt some if not all of these techniques!

Love and blessings,
