Tips To Keep Away Tensions/stress/annoying Thoughts

"Tips To Keep Away Tensions/stress/annoying Thoughts"
from person to person it may vary. In my case I try to spend more time for me. Try to make a conscious decision that DO NOT THINK ABOUT THE STRESS GIVING TOPICS" and remind me about it all the time. Listen to music (especially devotional, mediation, romantic songs with good lyrics), watch comedy shows that make me smile, try to sleep, wander in my garden (plants and flowers make me happy), window shopping or even walking inside shops or malls, reading motivational stories, quotes and tips etc.

At work I switch on some chanting, mediation songs in the back ground ( for example gayathri mantra), that make me more focused on what I do..

 

That is a good one. One could do that Hamlet dialogue, about slings and arrows, and such. But then one would need one of these around the neck:


I clean the kitchen, wipe all the spice containers, and put them back in order. Wash the rarely used dishes, and if that isn't sufficient, I clean other rooms as well.
There is always the IL to come and see who is having a much worse situation than I. That usually does the trick.

 

Cooking , painting , drawing , gardening , knitting . The realization that nothing is permanent and I am my biggest strength also helps.

 

• Walk walk walk ....
• Losing myself in nature while walking ( rain or shine)
• Play badminton with my kid
• Watch/listen funny videos or good music. Variety helps including listening to Smule singers
• Long drive by myself ( in the name of grocery shopping)
• Singing while driving (who cares with closed windows)
• Chatting with few friends

These are few things I practice apart from poojas/mantra chanting
