Do you, like me, hit the 3PM work wall and need a moment to feel rejuvenated?
Here are four FUN ways to get back on track quickly and easily!
LAUGH.
15 seconds of laughter, two times a day will boost your health and well-being.
Laughter has also been shown to reduce stress and improve mood and energy.
Google “15 seconds laughter” to get started.
Make laughing a part of every day.
SMILE.
Smile now – yes, at the computer. Hold it until you have a fun “buzz” in your stomach.
That smile/buzz releases feel-good hormones such as endorphins – and you feel happier.
Science tells us happier people have better relationships and are more successful.
That alone makes it worth the time, right?
Try smiling while working for one minute, one hour or a day – I guarantee you will benefit.
Expect more creativity, peaceful feelings, and an elevated mood.
PLAY MUSIC.
Playing your favorite music can calm, energize, and shift your mood quickly.
Why? We consciously and unconsciously relate music with pleasant memories/events.
It is an instant game changer when your energy is low.
Try adding fun, up-lifting music to your next meeting or event and watch energy soar!
MOVE IT!
Pay attention to how you are sitting right now. Are your shoulders back and relaxed, or hunched over? Sit up straight and stretch your arms. Stand up and stretch your legs.
Notice how altering your posture causes you to feel more positive and alert - happier.
Combine this with smiling, music, or laughter – and you will feel more awake and alive.
Laugh, smile, play music, move – and you will instantly feel better.
Now that you’re recharged, let’s tackle the rest of the day!
