Stress Relievers to Start Your Day - from HopePHL Behavioral Health

4/13/2023

Many thanks to Laurie Amado for this article. She is a Behavioral Health Therapist at HopePHL.

One thing that we are all familiar with is stress. Even trying to fit in some of the stress relievers can be stressful! Here is one thing to remember: The way we start the day sets the tone. Here are some simple tips to starting the day peacefully:

  • Take a few deep breaths when you wake up.
  • Pause before you rise to express gratitude. This turns the mind toward the positive. 
  • Hydrate yourself! You just went 6-8 hours with no liquid- drink a glass of water when you rise. Drinking enough water actually reduces anxiety.
  • Avoid checking the news or other social media right away. There are so many potential stress triggers in those places! Challenge yourself to wait until your lunch break.
