Stress-Busting Cartoon Illustration: A girl showing her teasing expression with her tongue out, eyes tightly closed, and hands holding her two hair braids from both hands.
Play with the Psychologies of Others to Remove Tension
Go out of your home and visit any public place. It can be a restaurant, cafeteria, station, or even a mall. Give a blank expression to whoever passes by you and observe their reactions.
Going weird doesn’t mean you make a teasing facial expression like shown in the above cartoon picture. You can simply make intact eye contact for a couple of moments with any stranger. Or you can make long faces. It is not to tease others, but to make it a stress-busting teaser for yourself. Try to be a bit funny and see how tensions grow legs to run from your life, leaving happiness behind.
Remember Mr. Bean? If you can be sporting enough to come out of your tension web, try to play his role in real life for once.
Do you know what gives us a joyous feeling in Mr. Bean’s expressions? They are weird, but never offensive to any other person. The character of Mr. Bean knows how to enjoy himself. In the same way, enjoy your presence on this complex yet beautiful earth. The moment you will learn to enjoy your existence, you will learn to deal with tensions too.
Give a Spine-rocking Tingle to Your Beloved One to Reduce Stress
Even the idea of going surprisingly behind someone and tingle in the stomach seems so rocking and funny that perks up your mood to another level. Why not try this to light up your mood in tension too?
Select a sporty target, a person who doesn’t scold you for your annoying, notorious performance. Go mad and don’t stop until you two start to feel breathless. Soon you will realize that the same person is doing the same thing with you also. And here you go, to the world of endless laughter where your tension has no place to reside.
This surprise will make you both lighter for a while remembering the experience of sharing ultimately happy moments and eventually a stress-free life.
Take a Picture Perfect Selfie to Overcome Tension by Adoring Yourself
When you feel tense, you don’t like to do anything, especially clicking a photo in those depressed facial expressions. Still, do it. The process of taking a perfect selfie will make you smile, pout, and feel happy from within for bringing out the best of you. Take first, second, third…and so on tries, until you get your best posture. Eventually, you will see how pretending to be happy will make you 'real' happy right in few moments. Take some minutes with it and try out some effects to brighten up your selfie photo even more.
Now when you have got your best shot, don’t forget to make it your DP on Whatsapp or share on Facebook to get your highest number of likes. You can also use that image as your mobile wallpaper to remind your victory and to remember how you turned from tense to happy.
Whenever you feel tensed again, see that pic, rejoice, and shoot tension, thinking of yourself at the top of the world. Do it often to fall in love with yourself.
Get Pampered to Get Some Tension Free Moments
Gone are the days when pedicure, manicure, different hairstyles, getting your eyebrows done and all those fashion accessories were for females only. Now guys also are in vogue shoulder to shoulder. And why not, who doesn’t like to be in style and turn the heads around?
So what are you waiting for? You are a girl or boy, man or woman, visit your stylist and pamper yourself. Enjoy your new look and go crazy about looking good.
Pampering yourself arouses the sense of love and care, which simultaneously gives an idea of being protective of yourself. Once you develop the feeling of this love and sense of protectiveness for yourself, you will never let the negative, distressing, annoying, or anxious vibes come to your arena.
You on your own will secure yourself from being tensed and stressed.
Feel the Vibration to Cope with Tensions
No no! I am not at all going to suggest an electric shock for relieving tension. I am going to introduce an amazing arrow to you, which will hunt two targets.
You just have to shack your body as if it is vibrating through any current. You can use a machine, go to the gym, or can also do it on your own assuming the vibrator. This fun activity will distract you from all your worries, leaving you with a happening body and brain. Second, it will help you in killing your extra calories and maintaining a healthy weight.
What can be better than controlling the tension with weight loss at the same time?
Take a Shower to Soak Your Tensions: Let Your Stress Flow!
When you take bath, it provides you privacy, focus, and more control over what and how you think and experience. No disturbance and direct control give you a reminder that you are the king of your experiences. No one can steal your little joys. The soothing effect of a shower will make you realize the freedom of happiness. Feel such small sheer-bliss moments to relax from tensions and take a new start with refreshing approaches.
You fill your shower with bubbles or not, but soaking yourself is the most important thing. What other elements you can add to lighten up your mood are your favorite music in the background, candles to enhance the feel, and good aromas to introduce the pleasant fragrance. And yes, your loud singing; doesn’t matter how bad you sing! Ensure to enjoy every bit of it and feel the ultimate freshness around you.
When you will come out of your bathroom after enjoying a superb bathing experience, you will feel the tensions have also burst in the bubbles and flowed with the water.
Play Alone to Defeat Tension: Challenge Your Self to Beat Your Own Records
Play with yourself to beat your last high score. Give preference to any outdoor game instead of playing a video game or going for downloading a gaming app on your Smartphone.
Take a plastic ball or basketball and challenge on a number of bounces while dribbling it on the ground. If you love to make chapattis (pieces of bread), then challenge yourself to make the slimmer and rounder roti without any black spot.
It will give you a sense of perfection and a taste of success to soothe you from within. It will also help you gain your self-motivation and realization of self-worth.
These small challenges will work as stress busters and make you sporty for facing challenges later in real-life problematic situations.
Give your Tension a Funny Name and Tease it
Give your problem the name of your favorite video game’s villain. Treat that as a monster and try to beat it sportingly.
Problems are basically the hiccups that halt you to meet success, deadlines, goals, dreams, or happiness. You can connect almost every tension with a person who plays the hurdle or generates any problem. You can also give that person a funny or romantic name like tingling, lotus, or any other.
If you feel unable to find an appropriate name, create yourself. Make a name that is senseless and doesn’t exist. For example Trooty, Freakee, Krooker, Boolf, Tinka, etc.
The idea is not to make fun of a person that’s why no offensive name is suggested above. After all, no one is born to bother you; everyone does their own job and coincidently tangles with our jobs.
The idea is to make fun of your problems. It is to make your stress itself a stress buster by making fun of it.
Make a Bubble Wrap Your Tension Buster
I have not met anyone who doesn’t like to burst the tiny plastic bubbles of a bubble wrap. It’s always fun to enjoy the sound of chit-chit or tich-tich while blasting those bubbles. How lightning!
Think as if they are the tension bubbles and you are getting rid of them with every bursting sound. Use this trick as a stress therapy and keep popping the bubbles until you feel relieved. Doing this will make your mood light immediately and redirect you towards the fun thinking process.
