How to De-Stress? Part 1


Hiya,

If you type in the search bar of any search engine, it would give you numerous ways to de-stress your life. Some work for some, some work for others and some work for nobody.

De stressors is a name given to those remedies or ways that make you calm and peaceful and pull the stress out of you. Let’s talk about some common and uncommon ways.

Exercise

There are numerous people who are affected by stress and to de stress themselves, they opt for exercise. Whether it be a jog on the tread or yoga, cardio or weight resistance. It does help in making you feel good about yourself. You vent out anger by vigorously working out or simply punching the bag. But, for me, this is a total loss (sometimes) as I am really too distracted by my thoughts.

Beach

Long walk on beaches are a really a plus point. On crack of dawn or for a sunset scene, both time of the days are pretty stress reliever. Bare foot makes you re attach yourself to earth. The sound of the waves make you feel relax. Stretch here if you can!

Connecting yourself to ‘The Thing’

There is always someone or something that makes you relax, makes you want to melt down after a stressful day. Be it a movie, toy, friend, family or your spouse.
Here, I may like to talk about connecting spiritually, you may be of any religion but connecting mentally can be a real stress reliever. It can take your stress away from you forever. Prostrating, Bowing, or even putting your hands together in prayer can make you feel strong physically and mentally.
(Disclaimer: I am not talking about any particular religion, everyone is free to believe in whatever they want. I respect everyone views and this is not for any arguments.)

Stretching while in bed.

This mostly helps in de stressing physically, after you come from work. There are so many good stretches videos online. Pick one and try after a long day from work. It helps!

Get Offline

Being socially active can be a disadvantage. Go for a internet detox every month for a week. So long? What? Really, its easy. Will power!! I have tried it and it works but then you get on to loads of notification and the enticing ride begins but than here come “De-cluttering’ where you need to prioritize even the social content you are interested in.
Well, this article is getting a lot bigger than I thought. So let’s do it in parts. Do tell me how you liked it and does it help you.

Thank you for reading, do come back for more!

Toddles!

The Best Recipe for the WHITE sauce. I love cooking and experimenting. And today, when I was making a vegetable and chicken pasta, I made a WHITE sauce to compliment it.

Welcome to My Beyond Blog

Hiya, For a long time now, I wanted to start my own Blog, but, I couldn’t get the motivation to start it. I was really afraid of ‘being rejected’. Then, I thought why not make one and see how it feels and who and how it is welcomed. How can you be afraid when you haven’t experienced it yet, and this is no sin, right? So, thus the name ‘Beyond That’ as it selflessly shows that you can dream, achieve and feel good about it. It’s all about positivity. Well, so what is here that may interest my readers, 1.      The new ways to cope with life and be more open about it 2.     The ways in which we can open up our thoughts and be more creative in what we have to say 3.     My weight loss journey, how it helps me and how may it help you 4.     The wonderful reasons of writing as I have a hundred and thousands of abstracts waiting to be read and admired (I think so!) 5.     A lot of fun facts, opinions, statements and dairy entries that ranges from fashion to beauty and cutlery t

It's all about Biryani!

Biryani Case Study Making biryani today at home made me think of a blog entry. If you live in Pakistan and aren’t familiar with biryani, than you are not Pakistani at all (may be it is saying much, but truth is hard). Biryani is loved by everyone in Pakistan and everywhere else in the world and so are the versions that are loved. From Sindh to Hyderabad to Bombay, all the version are being loved and liked by all ages. I remember when I was a small kid, biryani was an occasional treat. I used to beg my mother to make me one and she said it takes time. “No beta, biryani takes 3 hours and I have a lot of work.” My mom used to say. Chapter closed. Now, people make biryani in 1 hour and well, they are not that good. Either ‘Thumbs up’ or ‘thumbs down’. Sindhi or Hyderabadi biryani , to me it sounds the same and smells the same. Taste changes as you differ the layering process. Some says that hyderabadi is made only from yogurt and no tomatoes are used. Some says that Sindhi biry
