How To Reduce Stress: Stress Management Techniques



Here is the best way to relieve stress for you that you can perform at any place.

ABDOMINAL BREATHING

To reduce stress and anxiety, start doing abdominal breathing for 5 to 10 minutes each day. Deep breathing increases supply of oxygen to your brain and stimulates parasympathetic nervous system, helpful in achieving deep relaxation, improving concentration, increases our lungs capacity.

Here is the way to perform abdominal breathing:

Sit down: Sit down on a firm comfortable chair.  Make yourself comfortable and keep your shoulders and neck relaxed and keep your knees bent. Now place one hand on your chest and other hand on your lower stomach, so that you can know you are breathing correctly.

Breathe in and breathe out: Focus on the position of your hands while performing. Inhale through your nose, making sure the hand on your lower stomach rises while the hand on your chest remains still and then contract your stomach muscles to relax, breathing out through pursed lips. Perform this exercise for 5 to 10 minutes.

Be stress free and keep relaxing.
