We are currently in love with Shaniece Hairston. You might know her as Evelyn Lozada daughter but this girl is making waves in the fashion industry. I recently checked out her website Shaniece Hairston, which gives us an insight on her life. She has become one our new Muses at MuseMe. Here is a great article on her ways to distress! Makes sure you check out her website!
1. Yoga: No matter what my mom thinks, yoga will always be one of my favorite ways to release stress. It is just so calming and also keeps my body fit!
2. Deep Breathing: I’m big on breathing techniques when I’m feeling anxious or stressed. I find a place where I feel at peace and I just breathe in through my nose and out though my mouth. Even if you can’t find a place that is relaxing, it will still help to take some long breaths. That’s one of the best things about this technique, it can be done anywhere, any time!
3. Meditation: Meditation is really simple and has been proven to really work! Just find a comfortable place, close your eyes, relax your muscles and focus on one thing. It can be your breathing, an object, or just a picture in your mind. Even just 10 minutes of this can do wonders. Just stay focused and not let distractions enter your mind!
4. Get a Massage: Getting a massage is a great way to get relaxed. I especially love going to Thai or Korean spas, they definitely have some great massage methods and techniques!
5. Workout: This is a major stress reliever for me. It’s all about releasing those endorphins! It’s even better that beyond just making me feel better, I can see results physically! I used to hate running, but now I find it to be a great way to clear my head and get energized at the same time.
6. Take A Walk: Just being outside and breathing in fresh air can do a lot! It will help clear your head and also boost endorphins. I love finding parks or green spaces to walk to in order to enjoy my surroundings to the fullest!
7. Hang Out With Friends: Sometimes all you need is to hang out with friends and laugh! My friends always know the right things to say! Playing with my baby brother Leo is also a way I like to destress.
8. Snack: I wrote a blog post on the best foods to eat while you’re stressed and I still reference it all the time! I already pay attention to what I put in my body anyways but sometimes I’ll purposely eat some foods that are anti-stress to give my body that extra boost!
9. Listen to Music: Music is definitely a huge part of my life and I’ll always choose songs depending on my mood! And sometimes a dance party is the best solution!
10. Take a Bath: Taking a long bath with no distractions is a great way to just relax. Soak in some bubbles and come out feeling clean and refreshed!
11. Sleep: Sometimes you just have to literally recharge and have a restful sleep! Through your busy days, make sure that you’re not sacrificing any beauty sleep because it can really hurt in the long run.
So those are some of my favorite ways to release some stress, which is just a normal part of life! Just keep these methods in mind to combat it and go on and tackle the world!
