In this short discussion I share my own personal stress avoiding methods, in this case reading.
Books, yes remember those things? As a professional in the health and wellness sector, I balance my life with a multitude of work and private / semi private interests, from the previously discussed exercise and nutrition disciplines (see episodes 93 and 94) to reading and travelling.
I'm currently approaching the end of a biography on George Lucas, the world renowned creator of the STAR WARS franchise, whom ten years ago relinquished his ownership of the rights to this incredibly profitable I.P.
Upon selling Lucas Film and all rights to films, streaming shows and merchandise to Disney for a reported 4.5 billion dollars, it's now common knowledge among fans, that Lucas was unhappy and stressed with Disney's handling of his once precious and popular fictional world.
With this in mind, it's no wonder us mere mortals (read not billionaires) also get stressed with work, home, family, friends, political leanings and financial barriers.
Add to these factors, poor genetics, bad diet, alcohol, smoking, vaping and zero exercise, we are essentially inundated with stress inducing symptoms.
My advice, pick up a book and enjoy a small and low cost dose of escapism to help with stressful days.
Travel - this exciting and at times memorable experience is without doubt a superb way of balancing your life, weather it's a weekend city break or long haul travel to far off destinations, both can be hugely beneficial to our physiological health.
Learning about other countries cultures and mannerisms is educational and at times inspirational, which we can bring back home to reflect upon and where needed, utilize for our gain.
Yes, we can still bring our devices on our travels and reply to emails or social media updates, but.....wait for it, we don't have to.
Simply let certain people know where, when and how to get in contact, as for your normal stress inducing daily interactions, switch off and get a tan.
