Connect to nature on a regular basis to relieve anxiety and stress. Practice the vibration of taking time for yourself to just let go and be “free” in nature. Nature has a way of reconnecting us to our true essence. When we truly immerse ourselves in the beauty and calmness of nature, we awaken to a better understanding of ourselves in relation to everything.
When you spend time in nature, leave everything behind. Be there and be present. You can do this by practicing spending time
Now take a break and list at least 5 things for which you are grateful. How did that make you feel? Did you feel better then when you started? Now you may not have noticed a difference in your mood right now, however, if you practice gratitude on a consistent basis, you will notice the difference.
Gratitude is one of many ways to raise your vibration. When you raise your vibration, you feel good. When you feel good, you improve your emotional, mental and physical health.
Everything in the universe, including humans is energy. Energy is all around us. Everything our senses perceive is energy as well as everything our senses do not perceive.
Another way to explain this is that everything is composed of atoms. These atoms are further composed of subatomic particles, which are fluctuations of energy. The basic subatomic particles are electrons, protons and neutrons.
Energy vibrates at different frequencies. There are low frequencies, high frequencies and frequencies that range between the two. Low

Quieting your mind during meditation is simply a matter of practice, practice, practice. When you start to meditate, you begin to notice the abundance of thoughts that are roaming around in your head. That is part of the process. Just keep going. The more you meditate, the more you train your mind to focus. In other words, you build more neural connections to help you focus. You also break old neural connections of your old habit of a constant chattering mind.

I had the privilege of addressing this question in the latest issue of Wellness Woman, 40 and Beyond online magazine. Here is my response:
Before you can love to be present, you must first understand the concept of presence. Being present to me is being grounded and rooted in the present moment. You are out of your head, and literally in your “body”. You are rooted enough
Today, I have the great pleasure of being the host on Day 1 of Clifton Meador’s Virtual Blog Tour.
Clifton’s book Fascinomas is celebrating its launch from February 17th to March 3rd, 2014.
Clifton K. Meador, MD has a gift for filtering through tales and ‘can you beat this one’ stories that are passed around doctors’ lounges and operating rooms and coming up with succinct but extremely entertaining stories. A ‘fascinoma’, as Meador defines, is medical slang for an unusually interesting medical case. He has gleaned

While doing a meditation for anxiety or stress relief, it can be challenging to maintain a relaxing posture when your joints, muscles and body are stiff. When you are uncomfortable, your mind tends to focus on being uncomfortable or you wind up shortening your meditation practice. As a result, whether you are doing a sitting meditation or a moving meditation, warming up your body, joints and muscles is a great way to relax beforehand. It allows your muscles and joints to loosen, blood flow to increase and
I had the pleasure of being a guest on HippyFitMom's show, The Skinny. On The Skinny Episode, we talked about health, meditation and holistic lifestyle skills.

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction, anxiety relief, relaxation and it also promotes healing. It is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" (qi) flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick, feel stress, or feel anxious and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
A Reiki practitioner acts as a "conduit" in directing this
Music is an excellent way to relieve anxiety and stress by helping you to relax and become more mindful. When your mind is stressed or anxious, it lowers your overall vibration. From a law of attraction perspective, this means at a lower vibration, you are attracting people, situations, environments, etc. that are also of a similarly low vibration.
The more you can relax and allow, the more your vibration raises. At a higher vibration, you are attracting similarly higher vibrational situations, people, environments, etc.
Take at least a couple of
As I used to teach college human anatomy, I found myself telling this to my students all the time: repetition, reinforces, retention. Learning anatomy just required repeating, repeating and repeating. Now as I am teaching the law of attraction and meditation, on the other side of the spectrum, I still find this to be true.
If you want something to “stick”, you have to repeat it, repeat it and repeat it again, until it becomes natural for you. Repeat it until you form habits. Now this
I love using acupressure. It is a great way to stimulate the flow of qi (energy) that has been blocked or stagnated in an area because of stress. Some of my favorite points are Pericardium 8, Kidney 1, or directly on the area that is causing discomfort. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it is believed that acupuncture points work by regulating the qi (energy) of the body to create balance and health. When there is a blockage, there is a disruption of qi (pronounced chee) and disharmony in

Make yourself important in your life and take a break to do something for you. There are many options for taking a break. This is why I love the picture below, which shows 50 ways to take a break. I am sure you can find at least one that you can do on a regular basis to relax. Alternatively, if you like variety, switch it up. I personally like to keep 3 "go-to" methods that I use on a regular basis.
