Stress can cause you to gain weight. Gasp. Just one more thing to worry about, right? Well, unfortunately it’s true. While avoiding stress is near impossible, take the time today to do something that relieves stress:
1. Take 10 minutes to stare, think and breathe
2. Get a massage
3. Get a pedi
4. Make the hub babysit while you go wander around Target and buy things you don’t need (I’ve never done this…)
5. Watch a silly movie (my fave is Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion. You will heart it. I promise.)
6. Have half a glass of wine (enough to relax, but without taking in too many calories or wake up with a hangover)
7. Take a bubble bath (oh and add that half glass of wine for bliss…)
8. Hug someone (the hub, your baby, a friend, it feels so good)
9. Talk to a friend on the phone for way too long. Catch up and talk about happy things, try not to complain about the hub or work. Think of all the wonderful things that are happening or you want to happen.
10. HIT THE GYM (punch it out in kickboxing, cycle in out in spin, shake it out in a dance class, or pound the pavement running. Ahhh…a hard workout will make you feel fab!)
