Ways to Decompress

Just had to use some of these myself today.

  • Take a warm bath or shower: Soak in a tub with Epsom salts or essential oils, or take a relaxing shower. The warm water can help ease muscle tension and promote relaxation.
  • Listen to calming music: Put on some soothing music, nature sounds, or white noise to block out distractions and promote relaxation.
  • Deep breathing: It’s a simple but powerful technique. Breathe in slowly and deeply through your nose, hold for a few seconds, and then exhale slowly through your mouth. Repeat this for a few minutes to calm your mind and body.
  • Set boundaries: Let people know you’re taking some time for yourself and won’t be reachable immediately.

Experiment and find what works best for you. The key is to find healthy ways to manage stress and create some time for relaxation in your day.

When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
