If you’re planning a wedding and trying to ‘live life’ at the same time it’s easy to feel physically and emotionally burnt-out. These simple stress-busting ideas will have you feeling that just-engaged-bliss in half an hour or less!
Mini Spa Routine
We are so busy this time of year the first thing we strike off the priority list is ourselves. Grab an hour, head to the bathroom and lock the door! Not only will get a temporary time-out, you will feel put-together and ready to handle anything the season can throw at you.
Take a Walk
Just getting out and going for a walk can do wonders for your perspective. You can walk for as little or as long as you want- and it doesn’t cost a thing! Walking is perfect for removing yourself from what’s stressing you and getting those happy endorphins pumping!
Make a List
If you feel like you have a hundred things running around your head, write them all down. Once all your to-dos are out of your head and on the paper you won’t feel as pressured to remember all the things you have to do- and hopefully it won’t look half as bad either.
Phone a Friend
Planning a wedding can be an emotional rollercoaster. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, chat it out with someone.
Light Candles
Instead of harsh electric lights, light some candles. Just creating a calming ambience can help you find your Zen.
Massage
If you can’t afford a professional to iron out the knots in your shoulders, I’m sure your fiancé would be more than willing to assist- especially if you offer to reciprocate!
Breathe
Close your eyes and take some deep breaths, ensuring you breath out all the air in your lungs. It’s great for centering yourself and detoxing any stale air.
Laughing Out Loud
Laughing gives those fabulous ‘happy endorphins’ easing your tension. Watch a comedy, make a date with your funniest friends or even do a You Tube search. A good belly laugh will leave you wondering why you were feeling stressed out at all.
