Stress is not something one can avoid completely but with yoga we can learn how to reduce the impacts
of stressful situations and set ourselves up for a much happier and healthier life. Practicing yoga builds our
ability to be calm, focused, balanced and relaxed.
Meditation
Meditation is one of the most popular ways to relieve stress. It is
a technique to get centered when we are carried away by
emotional stress. Meditation involves sitting in a relaxed position
and focusing our mind on one thought for five to twenty minutes
without any distraction. Meditation technique stops mind to
deviate from any thought that comes in between the process.
Enjoyment
In this stressful life, it is very important to have some
refreshments. We must take out some time from our
busy schedule and spend it on the things that we like
to do. Activities like playing games, watching movies,
doing art and craft, dancing, singing, etc. can help us
to have a happier mental state and release stress.
Vacation
Taking breaks from our daily schedule and going on
holidays to tourist destination releases our stress. When
we go on vacations, we generally tend to forget our
work load and consequently spend dedicated quality
time with our friends and relatives leading to happier
and stress free time.
