5 Things You Can Do When the Day is Going Horribly Wrong.

All you need is 5 minutes to start having a good day again.

1. Laughing yoga – Hayasa Time: 60 seconds

Doing this video proved to me that this simple technique is the most powerful way to relax and see things a bit brighter. It is easy and can be done anywhere and I find the most effective is the Silent Laughter, because it is so deep in its effect. I really had a day that sucked wind and I felt so invigorated after doing Hayasa for over two minutes.

2. Remember your favorite funny faces when you were 7 years old. Make them in front of a mirror.
Time: 60 seconds

3. Silence. Breath through your nose. Just notice the feeling of your breath coming in and out your nostrils. Time: 60 seconds

4. Stand. Arms at your side. Close your eyes and just notice your balance. Time: 60 seconds

5. Give yourself a hug. YOU know that old high school trick where it looks like you are making out with someone. Really squeeze, like bear hug. Time: 60 seconds

That is a total of 5 minutes and can all be done in the privacy of a bathroom. Try it and tell me what you discovered about yourself!
