Home Remedies for Stress
1. Slow and Deep Breathing
- When you are under stress, sit or lie down in a quiet, comfortable place.
- Close your eyes and take a deep breath through your nose to the count of 5.
- Hold your breath for 5 counts, then exhale for 5 counts.
- Repeat 5 or 6 more times or until you calm down and feel relaxed.
2. Epsom Salt
- Add 1 cup of Epsom salt and a few drops of an aromatic essential oil of your choice to warm bathwater.
- Stir thoroughly, until the salt granules dissolve in the water.
- Soak in this soothing water for 20 minutes.
- You can enjoy this soothing bath 2 or 3 times a week.
3. Chamomile Tea
- You can drink up to 4 cups of chamomile tea a day to fight stress. To make the tea, add 2 teaspoons of dried chamomile to a cup of hot water. Cover and steep for 10 minutes. Strain, add raw honey as per taste and drink it.
- You can also add fresh chamomile flowers or a few drops of chamomile essential oil to warm bathwater for a nerve-soothing soak.
- You can even take this herb in supplement form. Consult your doctor for proper dosage.
4. Massage
- Slightly warm the oil of your choice.
- Use the warm oil to massage your forehead, neck, shoulders, back and bottom of your feet.
- Then, take a warm bath.
- Massage your body daily or as needed to reduce stress.
9. Exercise
Exercise works as a great stress reliever, be it aerobic, moderate-intensity or high-intensity exercise. It helps reduce the stress hormones and increase the “feel good” hormones in your body. In addition, it improves your mood and distracts you from daily worries.
Try to make time to do some kind of exercise when you are under stress. You can just take a short walk, swim, dance or play some sports.
