🤔 When you are under stress, what are some things you do to slow down your thoughts?
Stress is an all-too-common experience that can impact anyone at any time.
Here are a few ideas that I usually practice to slow down my thoughts when stress hits:
👉 Deep breathing exercises
👉 Short meditation
👉 Brief workout
👉 A walk to the shop to buy ice cream
Your turn. Do you have a special technique to combat stress?

Ooooh good question, especially with the SVB news over the weekend. I tend to zone out, listen to some music and cook, that brings me a lot of zen
Mine is similar to yours:
• Controlled deep breathing (30 secs).
• ICE COLD beet juice (lowers heart rate AND blood pressure).
• (One hour) “meditation” with ethereal music.
I go for a walk with my dog. When we walk and run together, the stress melts away.
I take a walk around the neighborhood while listening to podcasts/zen music!
1. Listening to music
2. Take a walk or
3. Watch a warm film (Good will hunting, Shawshank redemption, begin again)
I make sure to stay on a consistent workout routine. I also find that working in public can help, try working in a coffee shop for a few hours 😊
I always find a short walk in the fresh air with some chill music is really good for clearing your mind and helping slow down the pace a bit if things are feeling a bit much
Personally I use the following techniques:
* listening to the favorite music
* go for a walk
* spend time with a child
It helps to relieve the stress and receive good emotions :)
