Use a pillow under your lower back for extra comfort.

🧠

Mindfulness

5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Technique

When anxiety strikes, notice: 5 things you can see, 4 you can touch, 3 you can hear, 2 you can smell, 1 you can taste. This brings you back to the present moment.

Practice this anywhere, anytime you feel overwhelmed.

😴

Sleep & Recovery

Evening Wind-Down Routine

Create a consistent pre-sleep ritual: dim lights 1 hour before bed, practice gentle stretches, avoid screens, and try deep breathing or meditation.

Consistency is key - your body will learn to prepare for rest.

Walking Meditation

Transform daily walks into stress relief. Focus on each step, the feeling of your feet touching the ground, and your breath. Even 5 minutes can shift your mental state.

Try walking without music or podcasts - just you and your breath.

Body Awareness

Desk Posture Reset

Every hour, check in: feet flat on floor, shoulders away from ears, crown of head reaching up. Take 3 deep breaths and roll your shoulders back.

Set a gentle reminder to prevent chronic tension buildup.

⚡

Stress Response

The STOP Technique

When stress peaks: Stop what you're doing, Take a breath, Observe your thoughts and feelings, Proceed with awareness.

This creates space between trigger and reaction.

💧

Wellness Basics

Mindful Hydration

Dehydration increases cortisol (stress hormone). Drink water mindfully - feel the temperature, notice the sensation of swallowing. Aim for pale yellow urine as a hydration guide.

Start each day with a glass of water before coffee or tea.

🧘

Gentle Flow

Child's Pose Variation

Kneel with big toes touching, knees wide. Fold forward, arms extended or by your sides. This pose activates the vagus nerve, triggering the relaxation response.

Hold for 1-3 minutes, focusing on lengthening your exhales.

💝

Emotional Wellness

Heart Coherence Breathing

Place hand on heart, breathe in for 5 counts, out for 5 counts. Focus on feelings of appreciation or gratitude. This synchronizes heart rhythm with breath.

Practice for 3-5 minutes to shift from stress to coherence.

🎯 Practice Coherent Breathing

⏰

Quick Relief

90-Second Stress Reset

Neurologically, emotions peak and begin to recede within 90 seconds. Breathe deeply, don't resist the feeling, and remind yourself: "This will pass."

Trust the process - your nervous system knows how to heal.

🌳

Nature Therapy

Forest Bathing (Shinrin-yoku)

Spend time in nature without agenda. Don't hike for exercise - simply be present. Studies show 20 minutes in nature significantly reduces stress hormones.

Even urban parks or looking at trees through a window helps.

🤗

Self-Compassion

The Self-Compassion Break

When struggling, place hands on heart and say: "This is a moment of suffering. Suffering is part of life. May I be kind to myself." Self-compassion reduces stress more than self-criticism.

Treat yourself with the same kindness you'd show a good friend.
