Notice how your breath naturally opens up. Your throat softens, your jaw slackens, and your facial muscles relax. This simple technique can help balance your emotions and help you speak your truth. It’s an easy way you can be proactive and take control of your own well-being. I encourage you to take advantage of this self-care practice that is always “at your fingertips.” 

 

Shine in the Magic of You!

Your body is a magical, energetic being. Help the energy flow, and your body will easily create a sense of well-being, bring a positive state of mind, and experience peacefulness and calm. In that space, your relationships will be smoother, life will be calmer, and you will be able to feel the joy of being alive.

Self-Care Acupressure Technique to Relieve Stress 

Relax, the relief you want is possible right now! In the last issue of RHG Magazine, 

I shared an acupressure technique to help you release blocked energy and calm your nerves. Acupressure is a wellness method that has been around for centuries. Simply by applying gentle touch to specific points along energy meridians in the body, you can support yourself to feel better. 

Here is a technique that you can use throughout the day to help you express your feelings more easily and reduce the buildup of stress. With your right hand, gently cup the sternum directly below the collarbone. At the same time, hold your fingers in a vertical pattern on your tummy, just below your navel. Now, breathe in deeply and exhale fully. Take your time. Hold this acupressure pose while you take a few slow breaths.
