A Good Way to De-Stress

Nowadays anyone you ask what should I do to de-stress will probably tell you to exercise, but a good way to de-stress is much more than just exercise. Stress is caused by emotional problems i.e. depression, anxiety, guilt, anger, etc. All of these emotional problems that cause stress are due to a mental state. That is to say that to reduce the stress you should work with your mental state and then with your physical state.

So, what should you do to work on your mental state? What you should do is very simple you should sit in a place as quiet as possible for about 5 minutes and try to get your mind into a deep state of consciousness where the only thing you put all your senses of attention on is your breathing, this seems illogical or silly to do but doing that every day for only 5 minutes will make you realize that for the first time you start to keep your attention only on one thing without worrying about what happened or will happen and this reduces stress and gives you a more lucid mind. In conclusion, to lead a calmer life as a personal obligation, you ought to do it for your well-being.
