Relaxation
Our nervous system has not adapted well to the dizzying pace of life today. We are constantly inundated with phones, texts, emails, and being “on” 24/7, we are simply not able to process all of this information accurately and the nervous system interprets these stressors as evidence of needing to be on “high alert”. Although we cannot change all the aspects of today’s stressful world, we can implement a wellness plan that will help to to reduce the impacts from these stressors. A stress reduction plan will include relaxation and rejuvenation and time to just “be”. Often times there is not anything wrong that needs to be fixed and giving the mind and body a chance to recharge and relax is what is in order.
