Self Help-Quick Stress Relief

6/22/2015

Affirmations are designed to renew self confidence when we are feeling down.

They are training exercises that strengthen the mind. The spoken word has the power to change things, so when we speak affirmations, we change our state of mind as well as our circumstances.

The following is a quick stress reliever:

scroll to choose the card that matches your birthday
take 5 slow, deep breaths
focus on that card as you calm down
after several minutes of calm say the affirmation aloud
repeat it, allowing the words to become a part of your thinking

*This is a temporary relief. Long term relief comes only after practice.
