How not to break your pencils from stress!!

PC Load Letter?  What the F is PC Load Letter?  Most of us know what happened to that poor copy machine, (damn it feels good to be a gangster) I mean Micheal Bolton went to work on it.  Many of us are stressed out, and a lot of us get tight shoulders as a result of "carrying" your stress in your shoulders.  Here a few little tips on how to "de-stress" and live a little cooler.  Lastly little point did you know that stress causes or worsen 90% of all diseases and illnesses.




1) Don’t Just Sit There. Move! According to many psychologists, motion creates “emotion”. You might notice that when you are idle, it’s easier to become depressed. Your heart rate slows down, less oxygen travels to your brain, and you are slumped somewhere in a chair blocking air from reaching your lungs. I challenge you right now, regardless of how you are feeling, to get up and walk around at a fast tempo. Maybe you might want to go to an empty room and jump up and down a little bit. Movement is everything. Jumping up and down may sound silly but the results speak for themselves. Try it now for a few minutes. By now, if you just did some type of movement, you should feel more energetic and in a better mood. It works like “magic”.
2) Smell The Roses. “Stop and smell the roses.” How do you smell the roses? How about investing some money to go on that one trip you’ve been dreaming about? Would Paris do? There you will find lots of exotic places to jolt your imagination and spur your creativity. You can also visit the Caribbean and learn how to scuba dive. Can you imagine swimming deep under the beautiful blue water alongside some of the most beautiful creatures you have ever seen? If you can’t do that, just plan a short trip to a town nearby so you can get away from it all. Do it for a day. “What an exceptional way to smell the roses!”
3) Get Some Company. If you’re like me, you have many acquaintances, but you only have a few true friends. This isn’t because you’re introverted. It is because you’re very selective about who you let enter your territory. You’ve worked too hard to build your house—your dream—and you won’t let anyone destroy it for you in the blink of an eye. When you’re feeling down, call your true friends and share what it is that you’re going through. Ask for their advice or input. While their advice or suggestions may be helpful, often you’ll find that simply verbalizing your problems will help you feel better.  It works. Try it next time you are having some difficulties.
4) Help Others Cope With Their Problems. It is very therapeutic when you engross yourself in helping others. You will be surprised how many people’s problems are worse than those you may be facing. You can offer others assistance in countless ways. Don’t curl up in your bed and let depression and stress take hold of you. Get out and help somebody. There are many charitable organizations that can use your help right now. Call the National Federation of the Blind so that they can tell you how to get involved. Remember, you’re dealing with STRESS!
5) Laugh A Little. By now you’ve heard that laughter is a good internal medicine. It relieves tension and loosens the muscles. It causes blood to flow to the heart and brain. More importantly, laughter releases a chemical that rids the body of pains. Yet, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Every day, researchers discover new benefits of laughter. Let me ask you this question: “Can you use a good dose of belly-shaking laughter every now and then?” Of course you can.
