8 life hacks, how to maintain balance among universal chaos
Coronavirus pandemia deprived us of not only the usual freedom of movement, but also confidence in the future. Many feel confused, helpless and depressed. We share simple body-oriented techniques that will help relieve nervous tension and cope with stress.
These days, most of us are restless, anxious and scary. What is happening seems absurd and does not fit in the head. Many are angry with themselves for not “gathering”. From time to time, we manage to pull ourselves together, but most often we literally fall apart into parts.
Everything that we feel now is absolutely
La recherche fraîche a montré que la plupart des gens ressentent la plupart des gens dégoûtés aux points suivants: apparence inhabituelle, dommages visibles, sexe, hygiène, nourriture, animaux. L’aversion pour le sexe est expliqué par le succès dans des situations désagréables – par exemple, quand ce n’est pas sûr que le cialis super active n’a pas de maladie, ou lorsque le sexe se produit immédiatement après la rencontre. C’est des sentiments désagréables – c’est un moyen de légitime défense.
natural. Fortunately, even in such a troubled time you can return the state of confidence and peace.
In body-oriented psychotherapy, effective techniques are used that help to release negative emotions and cope with stress. Some of them can be mastered independently.
1.Make long exhalations
This simple exercise calms the parasympathetic nervous system. All that needs to be done is to inhale, counting up to three, and slow down slowly, counting up to six.
2.Singer without gripping your lips
The lingering buzzing sound stimulates the vagus nerve, which sends the body a signal: “Stop worrying, calm down and relax”. Inhale through your nose and slowly exhale with your mouth closed, singing “mmmmm”. To quickly master yourself, repeat the exercise three times.
3.Breathe left nostrils
Another effective breathing technique. Sit straight and raise your head so that the chin is located parallel to the floor. Squeeze the right nostril with the thumb of the right hand. Slowly inhale through the left nostril, counting up to three, and exhale slowly, counting up to four. Repeat for 30-60 seconds.
4.Encourage five feelings
Our bodily sensations are an invaluable gift, since they associate us with the present. Returning to “Here and now”, we cease to be afraid of the future. Ask yourself five questions:
- What I see? Notice everything that surrounds you: movements, colors and shape of objects. Hold your gaze at something pleasant.
- What I hear? Listen to the background noise: let each sound penetrate your mind.
- What taste do I feel? During the meal, focus on taste shades and texture of products.
- That I am tangible? Pay attention to every little thing: softness of clothing, air temperature in the room, smooth floor underfoot and so on.
- What smells here? Mark how your sense of smell reacts to pleasant and unpleasant odors.
5.Raise your legs
In order to return to balance, it is useful … throw your legs on the wall. The pose borrowed from yoga accelerates blood circulation, and the lower limbs are filled with energy. This is very useful, since poor blood circulation leads to chronic fatigue, nervous tension, muscle pain and constant stress.
First, turn on calm music and light a candle. Spread a yoga or blanket rug on the wall. Remove shoes, lie down and raise your legs. Inhale through your nose and fill your stomach with air at the expense of three. Exhale and pull the stomach to the expense of four.
6.Blow on the “turntable”
Inhale with your nose and exhale with your mouth, folding your lips with a “tube”, as if launching an imaginary toy turntable. Exhaling as much as possible drag the stomach, as if trying to fasten close jeans. Repeat several times, trying to make the breath slow and rhythmic.
7.Follow the posture
How you are sitting? The habit of stooping can provoke attacks of fear and lack of air. When we sit evenly, the lungs breathe freely. During the day, do not forget to periodically control your pose and straighten your back.
8.Make a light stretch
A light stretch tells the body: “Everything is in order, we are tuned at the current moment in which there is no place for fears and anxiety”. Try two simple exercises:
- Raise your arms over your head, break through your fingers and bent alternately in both directions.
- Tilt your head left and right, trying to reach your shoulder with your ear to stretch your neck muscles.
We yearn for a normal life and in vain try to rethink the present, having no clear idea of the future. Allow yourself to live the entire range of emotions and remember: you can always restore balance.
