Stress relievers
How do you relieve stress in your day to day life?
I swear I was on the verge of a panic attack the other day from so much stress.

I have a colleague who goes to the rifle range and shoots things. She claims it makes her feel much better. (I try very hard not to make her angry.)

Calming your self
Something I do is called "square breathing" You breath in for a count of four,hold for a count of four, breath out for a count of four and hold again for a count of four. Repeat as necessary. What it does is slow your heartbeat just a little while focusing your attention away from the stress for a minute. It is also a good way to still your mind as a beginning to meditation.
of course hollow points DO have their place. lol Mutt |

That breathing is a good technique. I really got to get serious about stress relief.
Yesterday I developed a throbbing twitch on the side of my head. Now it's back...very annoying...and almost gives me a headache.

I play music alot. I go with r&b when I need to calm down. Or I will do is pick up a book, that always does the trick. Or watch a comedy.

good deal
Wyo I'm glad it worked for you. Amazing how something so simple can help. Do take care of yourself . As women we tend to do so much for everybody else it's easy to forget to do for ourselves.

I do tend to JAM OUT in my car while I'm dashing around. Got my fade set just how I like it. The college has a good station nowadays, and there's always the rez station for either old time country or powwow jams. I have Sirius but don't take the time to turn it on unless I'm on a long trip.
The breathing really helps during the "stress points" when I feel my blood pressure rising. It's similar to my "4x4" breathing when hiking. I put it in low and go. 1(in) - 2 - 3 (out) - 4....in time with each step. It's a habit, so not hard to change it up to the other 4 square breathing. Stress relievers for income tax time: iPod Ruger .22 Magnum Hot tub Vacation to Hawaii (I wish) The throbbing has subsided and I'm trying to adopt a "no worries, mate" policy.
