Well, it seems like with the upcoming election nerves are running high and people are butting heads left and right. I figured that a few tips for helping to calm the mind might be an order:
1) Pause and Think before reacting
If someone says something that you don't agree with, take a moment to pause and take a deep breath before expressing yourself.
2) Try to refrain from television or emailing a half hour before bed.
These activities can excite our brains leading to sleep disturbances. Try to give your mind about a half hour to unwnind before hitting the hay.
3) A hot bath does wonders!
This can help ease both your muscles and your brain. Add a few drops os essential oil or epsom salts for a boost. I recommend a bath before bed. Baths not your thing? A shower will do the job too.
4) Exercise
Exercise can jump start your blood flow and your thoughts. Even a leisurely walk can help you sort through issues on your mind.
When in doubt, 3 deep breaths does the body good!
