14 Funky Ways To Calm Your Nerves Consistently:
“ Smile, breathe and go slowly” by Thich Nhat Hanh Zen Buddhist
Do yourself a favor and add more deliberatemoments of relaxation and deep rest into your day. This article is a reminder of the many ways you can put yourself first more often and soothe your nerves consistently. You can also tell where my focus is at the moment ……. nourishing my nervous system.
Calming your nerves means reducing your mental and physical activity. Withdrawing regularly from excess stimulation such as media, phones, driving, toxic city noise and busy places and allowing yourself a moment in time to dissolve your fatigue and stress.
20 Ideas For Calming Your Nerves Consistently:
1: Melt the frown. Smile. Release any worry, stress and tension by relaxing your facial muscles. Picture softening your forehead, cheeks, eyes, tongue, ears and scalp. Keep your mouth slightly open which unlocks the tension in your jaw and neck. Let your tongue float in your mouth. Use a mirror to check in with your face muscles or better still do what I do. Have a few figurines near your work desk such as Mr Happy and Little Miss Sunshine to remind you to smile more often and lose that frown.
2: Take a chill pill. Close your eyes, cup the palms of your hands over your ears, now listen to the sounds of the ocean playing inside your head. Continue until you feel your nerves a little less frazzled, your thoughts a little calmer and your breathing more relaxed.
3: Turn off the noise: Silence nourishes your body, mind and soul. Silence is very restorative. Toxic urban noise is never ending and can be a constant background stress that you may not be aware of. Tune into your hearing and notice which sounds irritate you. Take a five minute “no noise” break. Alternately turn down or turn off any unnecessary stressful noise.
4: Repeat a calming mantra: Use your thoughts to fuel your body with a constant stream of calming and relaxing thoughts. Mantras work because they take your focus away from the stress and drama (just for a moment) and invite more peace into your life. Here’s a few of my favorites that you might like use. “I will remember to breathe and relax moment by moment” One of my personal favorites is “Every cell in my body is loved and healthy”. Breath in “I am calm” breathe out “I smile”
5: Take a mental health break: A less crowded mind means your nervous system is calmer. Take regular breaks from too much thinking and bring your awareness back into your body. Do your best to have an enjoyable morning and afternoon tea away from your desk in a pleasant environment. Listen to the requests of your body, drink when thirsty, stretch and move when you need to and never skip a meal. An added bonus; A quiet mind has direct access to wisdom and insight.
6: Adjust your breathing: Find some calm: Make your “out” breath twice as long as your “in” breath. This will immediately calm you down. Your breathing directly reflects your stress levels. If you breathing is fast, tight and shallow then I encourage to read my article: 15 clever things to know about your breathing
7: Calm your nerves by turning your back to the world: This is in my top 3 all time favorite relaxation postures in the world. Its such a simple way to calm an overcrowded mind, call back your scattered energies back, calm your breathing and relax. Click here for full details. I promise you’ll love it.
8: Hug well and hug often: Give a hug or receive a hug, either way hug well and hug often. Heh, even give yourself a hug. Hugging and cuddling is therapeutic, healing and calming. According to Virginia Satir a family therapist; we need 4 hugs a day for survival, 8 hugs a day for maintenance and 12 hugs a day for growth. Whats your daily hug quota?
9: Rest your eyes: When you relax your eyes you are inviting your mind and body to follow. Do yourself a favor and grab yourself a yoga eye pillow and enjoy 5 minutes of relaxation. You may even want to make your own find out more here about the benefits of yoga eye pillows:
10: Self massage nourishes your nervous system: I love my early morning “warm” oil massage. Touch is healing and extremely nourishing to your body. Self massage releases happy feelings into your body, improves circulation and supports the removal of toxins from your body. There are simply loads of benefits.
Whilst “self massage” might seem like hard work at first, I can guarantee you’ll soon notice a difference. I recently wrote an article on self massage which you are very welcome to read here:
11: Cancel, clear, delete your energy drains: Notice what zaps your precious energy and reduce your exposure to gossip, shopping centers, busy places, certain friends or family members. Better still cancel, clear and delete their existence in your life.
12: Give yourself a chocolate facial: Warning! This is very addicted. Licking is definitely allowed as long as no one is looking.
13: Hum your worries away: Time to Hum. Place your hand on top of your head,smile, now start humming. Feel the healing vibration of the hum reach the top of your head. Your clever hum will brush away the cob webs, soothe your mind, relax your face muscles and nourish your nervous system.
If humming doesn’t do it for you then unleash your inner pop star and have some fun. Buy the newly released Mamma Mia! DVDcial Edition) it includes all the words to all the songs so now there is no excuse for releasing all that stress with a good verse of dancing queen, money, money, money or take a chance on me. You know you want to.
14: Sip a calming potion: If all else fails then do what I do; grab for my bottle of passion flower. I know for a fact that the medicinal herb of passion flower calms my energies in an instant. It great for insomnia and nervousness and has a sedative effect on your nervous system. Around one teaspoon sends a warm calming feeling throughout my body.

“微笑，呼吸，慢走” 一行禪師說。
給生活增添更多從容不迫的休閑和深度睡眠的時(shí)光，這樣有利于你自己。本文能令你想起許多方法，你可以更經(jīng)常地持續(xù)使自己的神經(jīng)得到的平靜。你也可以告訴自己此時(shí)你的焦點(diǎn)在哪里……滋養(yǎng)你的神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)。
使你的神經(jīng)平靜意味著減少你的腦力和體力活動(dòng)。有規(guī)律地從過多的刺激中解脫出來可以使你及時(shí)消除疲勞和壓力，這些刺激包括媒體，電話，駕駛，有害的城市噪音和忙碌的場所。
20個(gè)可以持續(xù)保持你神經(jīng)平靜的主意：
1:松開眉頭。微笑。通過放松你的面部表情來釋放煩惱，壓力和緊張。肖像可以使你的前額，臉頰，眼睛，舌頭，耳朵和皮膚變得軟化。讓您的嘴巴略微張放這放松了你緊張的下顎和頸部。讓你的舌頭在嘴里浮動(dòng)。使用一面鏡子檢查你的面部肌肉，如果感覺比較好就繼續(xù)做我提議做的。把一些諸如快樂先生和小陽光小姐的雕像放在你的辦公桌附近提醒你經(jīng)常微笑并松開眉頭。
2：吃些傷寒感冒藥。閉上眼睛，把你的手掌捧起(作杯狀)放在你的耳朵上，現(xiàn)在傾聽在你腦海中的大海奏響的聲音。繼續(xù)聽，直到感覺你的神經(jīng)不那么疲憊，你的思想變得更平靜，你的呼吸更加輕松。
3：遠(yuǎn)離噪音：安靜可以滋養(yǎng)你的身體，思想和靈魂。安靜對(duì)身體極具恢復(fù)健康的作用。有害的城市噪音從來沒有停止過，它們是你沒注意過的持續(xù)性背景壓力。協(xié)調(diào)你的聽覺并注意什么聲音使你感到不舒服。感受5分鐘“沒有噪音”的休息時(shí)間。交替性地關(guān)小或關(guān)掉任何沒必要的有壓力的噪音。
4：叨念靜心的咒語：運(yùn)用你的思維給你的身體帶來持續(xù)不斷的寧靜和輕松的想法。咒語能起作用因?yàn)樗鼈兛梢园涯愕淖⒁鈴膲毫χ修D(zhuǎn)移開來，就像演一出戲（只是一會(huì)兒），可以把更多的平考試*大靜帶入你生命中。以下是一些我最喜歡的咒語，你也許會(huì)喜歡用。“我將記得不時(shí)地呼吸并放松自己?！币粋€(gè)我個(gè)人最喜歡是“我身體中每一個(gè)細(xì)胞都是可愛的，健康的。”吸氣時(shí)默念“我是平靜的”，呼氣時(shí)說“我微笑”。
5：進(jìn)行心理健康休息。思維少一些雜亂就意味你的神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)更平靜了。從過多的思考中間歇性地休息，可以把你的意識(shí)帶回你的軀體。盡可能遠(yuǎn)離你的辦公桌在一個(gè)舒適的環(huán)境下享受美好的早晨和下午茶。聽從你身體的需求，渴的時(shí)候喝水，需要伸展運(yùn)動(dòng)時(shí)就做運(yùn)動(dòng)，絕不放棄一頓飯。另外一個(gè)好處；一個(gè)平靜的思維與智慧和洞察力有直接的關(guān)系。
6：調(diào)整你的呼吸：尋找一些平靜：使你呼氣的時(shí)間成為你吸氣時(shí)間的兩倍。這可以立即使你平靜下來。你的呼吸可以直接反映你的緊張程度。如果你呼吸快速，急促而淺，那么我建議你閱讀我的文章：了解呼吸的15個(gè)聰明的方法。
7：背對(duì)著世界使你的神經(jīng)平靜。這是在世界考試*大上一直被我列于前三項(xiàng)最喜愛的休閑姿勢之一。這是使紛繁復(fù)雜的頭腦安靜下來的簡單方法，重新拾起你分散的精力，使你的呼吸平靜，放松。點(diǎn)擊這兒有很多詳細(xì)的資料。我保證你會(huì)喜歡。
8：經(jīng)常友好地?fù)肀?。給予擁抱或接受擁抱，無論何種方式都要友好地?fù)肀В?jīng)常擁抱。甚至給自己一個(gè)擁抱。擁抱是一種療法，能使人心平氣和。據(jù)一個(gè)家庭治療師——維琴尼亞•薩提亞；為了生存我們每天需要4個(gè)擁抱，為了保養(yǎng)我們每天需要8個(gè)擁抱，為了成長我們每天需要12個(gè)擁抱。你的日常擁抱量是多少？
9：放松你的眼睛：當(dāng)你放松眼睛時(shí)也順便放松你的頭腦和身體。給予自己一些幫助，抓一個(gè)瑜伽眼睛枕頭，享受5分鐘的休閑。你甚至可以找到瑜伽眼睛枕頭的更多好處。
10：自我按摩，滋養(yǎng)你的神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)。我喜歡清晨時(shí)用考試*大暖油按摩。撫摸具有治療功用并非常能滋養(yǎng)身體。自我按摩能在你身體中釋放幸福的感覺，促進(jìn)血液循環(huán)并且能幫助把毒素排出體外。這真是大有裨益。
同時(shí)，剛開始自我按摩可能是件困難的事情，但是我保證你很快就發(fā)現(xiàn)有不同的感覺。我最近寫了一篇關(guān)于自我按摩的文章，這篇文章肯定很受你喜愛。
11：不要把你的精力都耗盡。留心你最寶貴的精力，減少把自己暴露在這些場合中——傳播流言，購物中心，忙碌的場所，與某些朋友或家人相處。把它們從你的生命中清除掉。
12：給你自己來一個(gè)巧克力面部美容：警告！這非常容易上癮。只要沒人看見舔舔巧克力是完全可以的。
13：哼歌把焦慮趕走：該到哼歌的時(shí)候了。把手放置于你的頭頂，微笑著，開始哼歌。感受由哼歌引起的具有治療功能的震動(dòng)，這種震動(dòng)一直延伸到頭頂。你巧妙地哼歌將能消除雜念，舒緩你的頭腦，放松你的面部肌肉，滋養(yǎng)你的神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)。如果哼歌對(duì)你沒起到這個(gè)效果，那么，把你內(nèi)心的流行音樂歌星釋放出來，這很有趣。購買一張《媽媽咪呀》電影原聲帶的最新專輯（DVD版本）它包括所有歌曲所有歌詞，現(xiàn)在沒有任何借口以一個(gè)很好的詩的跳舞皇后釋放所有壓力，錢，錢，金錢或我要冒險(xiǎn)。你知道你自己想這么做的。
《媽媽咪呀》電影原聲帶（雙碟特別版）
14：抿一小口使人平靜的飲料。如果以上的方法對(duì)你都不奏效那么就按我做的去做；養(yǎng)一盤西番蓮。我知道一件事，西番蓮的香味可以立刻使我的精力安靜下來。它有益于治療失眠和緊張，對(duì)你的神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)起鎮(zhèn)靜的功效。大概一湯匙就可以給你全身帶來暖和平靜的感覺。
