5 quick ways to de-stress yourself

30 03 2008

Lately I have been working non-stop. Aside from my regular work that’s from 9 am to 5:30 pm. I currently have another freelance job that starts around 6 pm to 10. Currently, I have no life at all. It has been recently all about my computer, the internet and a lot, and I do mean, a lot of writing. I do my freelance work not only because for the money but secretly, I’m a workaholic. However, I take a few relaxation trips to renew my already sagging energy.

Below are just quick tips on how to unwind and refresh yourself.

  1. Look at something green. After long hours of starring at your computer screen, looking at green plants have been scientifically proven to be relaxing for the eyes.
  2. If you experience those days wherein you just feel utterly tired and unfocused, well, take a quick walk. I usually walk to the nearest star mart and buy myself a refreshing pineapple juice.
  3. Listen to your favorite music. I do this at work. Every morning after checking my email, I usually go to this online streaming site called radioblogclub. I have bookmarked some of my favorite playlist so that it would be very for me to find it. Whenever, I can’t handle the pressure or I feel so stressed out already, I always sing my heart out and at the top of my lungs.
  4. Drink water. We need to replace the water lost from sweating, tears and the body’s heating and cooling system on a continuous basis. Dehydration is associated with decreased energy, increased hunger, tiredness, and aging wrinkled skin. In addition to actually drinking water, you can eat more water-based foods, like fresh fruits and vegetables for hydration.
  5. Cuteoverload.com. This is my recent destresser. Cuteoverload is a blog that contains cute videos and pictures on animals and anything that’s cute.
