5 Ideas to help you calm your mind


1. Bath bombs

Taking a warm bath can help you decrease your levels of stress by reducing cortisol, the stress hormone.



2. Aromatherapy

Using an essential oil, specifically, lavender scent can help improve your mood by traveling through the olfactory system to the amygdala, the part of the brain that deals with emotions.




3. Massage

Having a massage can relieve your muscle tension which in turn makes you feel relaxed.




4. Meditation

Channeling your stressful thoughts using meditation, can help you reduce your levels of stress.




5. Music

A way of synchronizing your brainwaves to reach a conscious relaxation.





Bonus:

A little bit of everything.





As always, remember to stay healthy and come back for the next topic.
