Stress

At some time in our life we will incur stress, which can not only mess with our equilibrium but also our eating habits and sleeping patterns.

Here are some tips to beat stress:

Sleep - Having a restful sleep is one of best stress relievers. However, you could find that stress is causing your sleeping to be more erratic, here a a few tips to avoid this:

  • Avoid Tea or Coffee.
  • Alcohol. Whilst it will make you feel sleepy at first, it will more than likely create a fitful nights sleep.
  • Gentle stretching excercises.
  • Meditation.
  • Relaxing Music.
  • A warm, relaxing bubble bath.
  • If the problem persists, either try to solve it before going to bed or make arrangements to solve it in the morning.
If however you lay in bed and cannot get to sleep you could always try counting sheep or visualizing a black space as this will help divert your mind from your problem.
