Some simple suggestions to develop your way to effortless life balance:
-
Breathe … deep into your belly. If anxious, make your breath longer on the out-breath. Make a sound like you are blowing bubbles or make a buzzing sound of a bee.
-
Practise gratitude … start thinking about things you can be grateful for ... the breath in your body, the sun shinning, the rain on the plants, a roof over your head.
-
Connect with others … for support and ideas … we can all have tough times. Even sitting watching people can be uplifting.
-
Music ... listen to something that will make you feel good.
-
Move your body… shake, dance, walk.
-
Be outdoors, barefoot if possible. Watch and listen.
-
Self-care … do something that will make you feel good right now.
-
Read something uplifting and motivational.
-
Use one of your strengths in a way to help one of your weaknesses.
-
Meditate … sit quietly with your eyes closed ... simply breathe naturally and focus on the breath and on how the body moves with each inhalation and exhalation.
-
Remind yourself for whatever you are doing ... this is easy, this is simple, this is fun.
-
Apply action to help right now … you’ll feel better when you are being kind and supportive to yourself, and are moving in your preferred direction. I can help you move in the direction you want to go.
