2-Minute Stress Buster:
.
Create A Soothing Place
.
"One of my favorite stress-relieving tips is to create a peaceful retreat at work, at home, wherever you're likely to experience stress. Maybe you bring in a flower, a candle, a special photo. It's as if you're creating an altar and saying, 'This is going to be my space to be quiet.' Focus on being tranquil there. Listen to a quiet CD, chant, or repeat a mantra or affirmation—anything that helps you reconnect to the feeling that 'I am calm, I am serene, I am connected, and I am powerful.'"
