Don't try to cope alone. You may expect too much of yourself and others. This will soothe and calm your nerves and relax your muscles. Tears can help cleanse the body and also release a natural pain-relieving substance from the brain. When events seem too overwhelming, keep a sense of humor.
Laughter makes our muscles go limp and releases tension.
Learn to laugh as a relaxation technique. View changes as positive challenges, opportunities or blessings.
