Anna Asp's curator insight, April 11, 2013 6:24 AM

One part of my project is to reduce the stress in my life and to find peace for at least a few minutes every day. This article gives a few tips to help me with that goal.
   One tip is to stop about 3 times per day, close your eyes and take a deep breath. Just for a couple of seconds. Here, you can pay attention to your body; see if you are tense, stressed or really in the moment. Another thing you can do is pay attention to wht you thoughts are right as you wake up. This is for you to look for consistencies, and change the patterns that are negative. If there is a certain part of yourself that you do not like, give that part extra attention at some time of the day - look at it in the mirror, be aware of it, and notice it. You may aso notice a change for the better, if you pay attention to it! And a final tip is to take your favorite time of the day and look around you or out a window and try to notice 10 new things in your surroundings. This will help you appreciate the little things, both in your surroundings and in your own capability to spot them. 

 

Do these things, just for a few minutes each day, and try to find peace. Sounds simple enough, doesn't it?
