Stress detox.
Why detox stress?
Life is a continuous process of facing and solving problems and challenges.
As we are living in a vrka that is volatile,
Uncertain,
Complex and ambiguous world.
And sometimes it is overwhelming.
Our bodies and minds get stressed.
Not all stress is bad.
Eustress is positive stress.
And distress is harmful stress.
But prolonged uncontrollable distress can negatively affect our immunological,
Neurological,
Physiological and psychological responses.
The stress response was designed to help us survive.
Under threat,
We have to respond quickly.
So our body needs more energy.
The heart beats faster.
Our muscles tighten.
Blood pressure rises.
Breathing quickens.
Senses sharpen.
Focus heightens.
And our pupils widen.
This was life saving when we had to run from lions or tigers or fight battles.
But today we live in chronic low grade stress situations in urban environments.
With high pressure jobs,
Pollution and so on.
Leading to wear and tear on the body.
Heart disease,
Digestive problems,
Loss of sleep,
Mental worry,
Negative thinking,
Loss of confidence and depression.
Are all attributed to stress.
Researchers have concluded that the real issue is in how our minds perceive and handle situations.
Our inability to deal with situations well and solve problems leads to accumulated effects of stress.
Here are a few tried and tested techniques to deal with stress in various settings.
If you have any underlying medical or psychological problem,
Please seek medical help.
And use these techniques as complementary methods in discussion with your treating physician.
Relieved stress.
Fast breathing is one manifestation of stress.
Conscious efforts to slow down your breathing can reduce the effects of stress and bring immediate relief.
Left nostril breathing.
Relax your body and mind.
Close your right nostril with your right thumb.
Smile while you breathe.
Slowly inhale through your left nostril and exhale through your left nostril.
Breathing deeply into your abdomen.
Repeat this nine more times.
Relax your body and mind.
Stress originates in the energy field of the heart-mind and then affects different parts of the body.
Relaxation can have deeper effects on both the body and mind.
Guided relaxation.
Sit comfortably and close your eyes very softly and very gently.
Let's begin with the toes.
Wiggle your toes.
Now feel them relax.
Feel the healing energy of Mother Earth.
Move up into your feet and ankles.
Then up to your knees.
Relaxing the lower legs.
Feel the healing energy move further up your legs.
Relaxing your thighs.
Now deeply relax your hips.
Your lower body and waist.
Relax your back.
From the top to the bottom the entire back is relaxed.
Relax your chest and shoulders.
Let your shoulders drop and feel them simply melt away.
Relax your upper arms.
Relax each muscle in your forearms.
In your hands.
Right down to your fingertips.
Now relax your neck muscles.
And move your awareness up to your face.
Relax your jaw.
Let it drop.
Then your mouth,
Nose,
Eyes,
Earlobes,
Facial muscles and forehead.
All the way up to the top of your head.
Feel that your whole body is completely relaxed.
Scan your system from top to toe.
And if there is any part of your body that is still tense,
Painful or unwell.
Immerse it for a while longer in the healing energy of Mother Earth.
When you are ready,
Move your attention to your heart.
Rest there for a little while.
Feel immersed in the love and light in your heart.
Remain still and quiet.
And slowly become absorbed in yourself.
Detox and rejuvenate your mind.
Cleaning the mind of its excessive thoughts and worries restores and rejuvenates the mind.
Guided limb cleaning.
Imagine the divine current is flowing from above you.
Draw the current down to your heart.
Now let this current move towards your left shoulder.
Then let it descend down your arm to your biceps,
Your elbow,
Your wrist,
Your hand.
Then let it flow out through the fingertips of your left hand.
While this flow is going on,
Think that heaviness,
Complexities,
Impurities and fears are going out of your system along with the flow.
Continue this process for 2 to 3 minutes.
Then gently taper the flow.
Then let it flow.
Then let it flow.
Then let it flow.
Then let it flow.
Then let it flow.
Then let it flow.
Now again let the divine current be drawn down from above your head to your heart.
And let it continue down through your left lower torso,
Through your left thigh and knee,
Down to your left foot and out through the toes of your left foot.
While this flow is going on,
Think that heaviness,
Complexities,
Impurities and fears are going out of your system along with the flow.
Bring your attention once again above your head and allow the current to flow down to your heart.
From the heart,
Divert it to your right shoulder and down your right arm all the way to your fingertips.
It should be a very gentle process,
Taking 2 to 3 minutes only.
Then do the same thing on the right side,
From above your head to your heart and then down through your torso and down your right leg to your right foot.
When this energy is flowing out through the toes of your right foot,
Be sure to remove any heaviness from the right big toe.
Repeat the whole process one more time if you feel there is still fear or heaviness in your system.
At the end,
With confidence,
Affirm that you are completely clean of all fears and complexities and that purity and simplicity are restored.
Restore positivity.
Anchoring your mind on the higher plane of freedom will give you the ability to manage stress much better.
Accessing this space deep within your heart and staying connected with it through your daily activities will enable this.
Guided Meditation Sit in a relaxed position and gently close your eyes.
Make a subtle thought that the source of divine light in your heart is attracting you from within.
Rest your attention on that light in your heart.
If you find your awareness drifting to other thoughts,
Gently come back to the idea of the source of light in your heart.
Feel immersed in the light and try to become absorbed.
Remain absorbed within this deep silence until you feel ready to come out.
When you open your eyes,
Carry on with your daily routine,
Continuing to stay connected within the heart.
Are you aware of yourCardiac you
