Simple Steps to Reduce Your Stress Part I
This month DrWeil.com is focusing on stress awareness. Each Saturday in April the Daily Tips will feature a stress-reduction technique.
Breathing strongly influences both mind and body. By simply focusing your attention on your breathing, and without doing anything to change it, you move in the direction of relaxation and stress reduction. Since thoughts are the source of much of our anxiety, guilt and unhappiness, get in the habit of shifting your awareness to your breath whenever you find yourself dwelling on upsetting thoughts. For more information and instruction on breathing exercises, visit the Spirit area in the Mind/Body/Spirit section on DrWeil.com.
