It’s time to fight the heat. The hot weather not only makes people irritable, but also the little things in work life can become a trigger for emotional outbursts. Try the following small methods!
1. Water a few pots of flowers and plants in the morning.
They don’t take up much space and require only a minute or two of care, but they provide excellent value for mental comfort at home or at work.
2. Post-it notes
A little cartoon sticky note on the phone or a little paint on it is a reminder to answer the phone slower, speak shorter, and feel more confident while taking a deep breath before picking up the receiver. Or free up one hand to pinch your free earlobe and gently rub it in a circle for a count of ten, then switch directions. When you’re done, transfer the earpiece. Research shows that rubbing the earlobe boosts the brain’s thinking and helps with crossword puzzles, Sudoku and crossword puzzles.
3. Spend time with your pet
Spend more time with your puppy, whether it’s your own or someone else’s. Studies show that it’s easier to relax and unleash your natural instincts when playing with a dog than with human companionship.
4. With co-workers and coffee
Going to Starbucks with co-workers helps to lift your spirits, and drinking tea is. But drinking tea or coffee alone, like drinking booze, does not a make depression slightly less, so blend in first, even if it does not work, it is not a bull’s-eye. If the effect is not obvious, you may want to go swimming after work. During the day, the legs because of the sedentary accumulated a lot of lymphatic fluid, too much accumulation makes people uncomfortable, affecting the mood, swimming can let the lymphatic fluid back to the heart, and the excess part through the kidneys to discharge, is the ideal way to release pressure. Think about it, after swimming and rushing to the toilet, doesn’t it really give you a feeling of relief?
5. Golf
When the last shot on the golf course is at stake, here’s a relaxation tip: shake your fingers. This action helps relieve tension in the small arms, wrists and fingers, while keeping attention focused and out of other thoughts.
6. Listen to music
Bring a radio to the office, tune it to your favorite frequency, and music or humorous skits are the best way to spice things up at work. Studies have shown that happy moods in the office are not only contagious, but also help boost immunity and prevent colds.
7. “Eat the snail”
What if you suddenly get stuck in the middle of a speech, or how to deal with the “eat the snail” phenomenon when you’re a guest host? It’s a good time to put a smile on your face and look at the audience for two seconds. A two-second pause is enough to slow down your thoughts and get back to the right topic (too much time can make it feel like you’ve forgotten your words rather than paused).
8. Take a sauna
Half an hour of intense exercise a day helps reduce physical stress compared to normal intensity exercise, and good results can last up to 90 minutes. What about sweating profusely? It might be better to take a sauna on a hot day, and it’s even better if you can link it to a group discussion, as it’s easier to get creative in that situation. Be careful to leave gaps in your workout, because excessive exercise can prompt the brain to boost sebacol levels, which can send emotions plummeting and leave you exhausted afterwards.
9. Drink more orange juice
Summer is supposed to be the season for drinking more water, so it’s a good time to drink more orange juice. Orange juice is rich in vitamin C, which helps inhibit the growth of stress-inducing hormones, making you feel relaxed and away from the anxiety that the hot sun tends to trigger. Orange juice (grape juice, lemon juice) also contains lemon a oleoresin a potential antioxidant that is effective against the scorching sun. Freshly squeezed orange juice is best, with 20 times more lemon oleoresin than the fresh pack.
10 Brain games
Do brain games like recalling which team has won the European Champions Cup in the last 20 years or reciting the names of the country’s provinces, cities and autonomous regions, they are brain-boosting without the “more than one” quiz that makes people
They’re not like the “more than one” quizzes that make people search their brains.
11. Change your sitting position
When interviewing, whether nervous or not, many people don’t know where to put their hands. Try putting your hands on your knees, elbows slightly bent, and fingers of both hands will touch. This posture makes it easy to relax and get into the conversation.
12. Change home decor
Summer is here, take the opportunity to change the old curtains in your home to bright colors or beautiful blinds; also put away the old monotonous shower curtain and replace it with a lively color, you will have to take a bath every day and can face freshness every day.
13. Relaxation time
Set aside 20 minutes in the early morning or at sunset to lay out a mat and sit on it. Place your hands on your knees, palms down or palms facing the sky. Touch your index finger and thumb lightly. Close your eyes, tighten and then relax, feeling the slow relaxation of every inch of muscle from head to toe; focus on your breathing, concentrating your mind between your eyebrows or on your dantian. Meditation is a stretch of the mind, and through the stretch of the mind often comes a stretch of the body.
14. Do things a little earlier
When you arrive early from a client visit, find a place to shine your shoes. A leisurely stroll and eyes looking around are most relaxing, while taking the opportunity to refresh your mind, and a tidy appearance can boost confidence.
15. Tennis balls to let off steam
What happens to the shape of the body when you tap on a computer keyboard? The number of breaths goes up by 30%, the blink rate goes down, the arms are unconsciously tense, and the shoulders are stiff. No one notices, right? Not more than 30 minutes you need to change your posture, simply stand up and pour a glass of water, you can effectively promote blood flow, relieve muscle tension, you can also close your eyes, shake the wrist. Suffocating uncomfortably? You can let off steam. Take a broken tennis ball, poke a hole in it, squeeze it hard, feel the pressure in your hand, and then let the stuffy air out with it.
16. Talk to a friend
The first day at a new job is also a good time to call a buddy and tell them you’re in a new environment. Again, take a few breaks throughout the day to intentionally drop the pace and feel like you are still in control and competent with the new challenges.
17. Dealing with traffic jams
When you get stuck in a traffic jam, or if you have to be late for something trivial, many people call to let you know. But usually they do subtract, telling the other person half the time they will be late. In fact, a reasonable approach is to add, telling them they will be a long time late to arrive, albeit unpleasant, but at least leave room for the other party to reschedule, and besides, it is better to be late once than to disappoint the other party by contacting them twice.
18. Take part in outdoor sports
Studies show that people who climb mountains, rock climb or enjoy walking in the mountains have more outdoor experience and are better able to handle tough or complex environments than people who are used to flat ground sports. The air is richer in negative ions at slightly higher altitudes than on flat ground, which helps to relax and invigorate the spirit when inhaled.
