Relaxing with Naturally
We live in a super busy world, with our work and families.
Our minds are stuffed with more than we can keep up; it’s hard enough for us to
get to sleep and stay asleep, let alone stay away from our devices. What’s
worse is that we don’t stop at just getting a good night’s rest. Some of the
most common causes of insomnia are anxiety and depression. Many people struggle
with mental health and depression as well as social anxiety. Social media
overload also contributes heavily to mental health problems. Even if we have a
healthy mind and body, there is no denying that we can still be affected by our
daily routines, from working out to eating what we like. The solution here is
natural because there are lots of things like breathing techniques and healthy
eating that can help with keeping you rested. If however, you find yourself
being irritable and even negative about everything and anything then I have
some suggestions for you. Below are some ways of taking care of your mind and
body. While these suggestions may seem extreme or radical, I have found them
very effective in dealing with my stress and depression. These techniques also
help me feel better overall so it makes sense that they would be for everyone.

1. Learn to Breathe
This one is for all of those who want to learn how to
breathe. There are plenty of tutorials online and books on youtube. Some even
recommend learning this very complex technique. However, I prefer taking
classes on Youtube. To start, try going through the breath at least once every
day for 3 weeks. It will probably take you a couple of weeks to master but by
the time you do, you should be able to control your breathing at any given
moment. This is particularly important when you are exercising or working out
at home or office.
2. Focus
This one seems easy, isn’t it? Just focus your mind and keep
your eyes open. Try not to think about anything around you. Don’t worry about
anything like traffic or other cars and you’ll soon forget all about it. When
you need to concentrate go back to the previous point, look straight into your
eye. Look directly into your own eyes, even during meditation, that’s how much
concentration you require to keep your mind focused and concentrated.
3. Eat Healthy and Stay Hydrated
As mentioned previously, stress and diabetes often come hand
in hand. Excessive drinking or overindulging in junk food can put someone in
poor shape. A person might end up feeling tired and frustrated, as well as
feeling like they need to rest. Not only does this leave their body and mind
exhausted, but it also puts them at higher risk for developing diseases and
illnesses, which in turn lead to further complications. So, make sure to eat
less sugar and processed foods. Also, make sure to drink lots of water and
consume lots of green vegetables and fruits.
4. Exercise Regularly
Regular exercise is known to have many benefits. People
generally feel healthier when they exercise regularly. One example of regular
exercise is walking. Walking is an excellent workout and is a good alternative
to running. Even while exercising, many people enjoy listening to music. They
tend to sit down, stretch and get comfortable, listening to songs, or any type
of noise that gives them an outlet. For someone unable to reach such heights,
they can use bikes and stationery that allows them to alternate between sitting
and moving at the convenience of their own volition. Sometimes they can get
even more out of their workout sessions by using yoga poses. Most importantly,
the best way to burn calories is to eat healthily and have a balanced diet,
preferably including lots of healthy protein.
5. Sleep On Rooftops Over Bed or Under
This is extremely obvious, but why is it overlooked? You
don’t need to spend hours upon hours under you, especially if it is cold
outside. You can lie down and sleep if it gets too cold, such as in winter. But
the main thing to remember is that it is okay to curl up beneath the blankets
and you won’t wake up feeling any ill after a day or two. Sleeping in the snow
is considered quite normal. That said, you still have to move around outside of
the bed to maintain the temperature. Sleeping on a mattress next to a blanket
is a great idea as it can provide warmth and comfort.
6. Meditate
Again, another method of keeping a positive mindset.
Meditation can give you a boost during stressful moments. Many people find
themselves suffering from depression and anxiety and they rely solely on
medication. It usually helps the medication but the downside is that it wears
off quickly and a person starts to feel even worse after some time has passed.
Meditation provides an alternative solution. It feels good to meditate at
regular intervals. You can find simple and effective tips for meditation on
YouTube.
7. Wash Your Hair Daily
One of the easiest and most common habits to break down is
washing. Washing is important for maintaining physical appearance, hair, and
skin. A dirty scalp can make a person look unkempt and unattractive.
Furthermore, washing is important to prevent infection and germs. It is
recommended that people who are sick avoid getting clean-shaven, shaving, or
any kind of barbing. Cleaning your hands is essential and you must wash them
after every meal. Doing so prevents germs from entering your system and
spreading through the air.
