STOP & SMELL THE FLOWERS!!

'Being without work' and 'looking for work' are both very stressful situations and because stress is the #1 killer it is really important to literally Stop and Smell the Flowers!

Research has shown that relaxation protects arteries from high blood pressure thus preventing heart attacks. Relaxation also helps us to eat healthy and exercise. When we are 'stressed out' we tend to eat unhealthy, quick processed foods. We also tend to stop exercising and taking care of our bodies. 

TRY THESE TIPS:
1) Practice deep breathing - inhale through your nose and exhale slowly from your mouth. Do this when you are feeling uptight. It is a great technique to use just before going into a job interview.
2) Listen to your inner voice and re-word negative thoughts. Instead of saying, "I will never find a job!" say "As long as I am diligent and keep looking every day, I will find a job!"
3) Schedule a time to take a walk every day no matter what the weather is like. Exercise will help to clear your mind and provide you with more focus for your job search. It will also help you to sleep better. A good night's sleep is crucial in assisting your body to relax. And always remember that as long as you focus on your goal, you will find that light at the end of the job search tunnel.....!!
Remember: DEEP BREATH IN, SLOW BREATH OUT!
