There are umpteen ways of getting rid of stress and there are as many solutions as there are problems in life. Evey problem has a solution.

Yoga is the mother of all solutions that helps you heal from inside and tackle the problems at the roots. Let us see which yogic ways we can make use of to relieve ourselves of all our problems.

Yogasanas

Yogasanas are a great way of keeping mind still and stressless. They relieve you of negativity from entering the system. Asanas such as Dhanurasana, Matsyasana, Janu Shirsasana, Setu Bandhasana, Marjarasana, Paschimottanasana, Hastapadasana, Adho Mukha Svanasana , Sirsasana , and Shavasana.

It is a better option to go through a yoga nidra session after the series are completed as this removes stress.
Breathwork always eliminates anxiety

Certain pranayamas work like a charm when it comes releasing your anxiety. For example, Kapala bhati works excellently on mood upsets. It settles you down if you are anxious.

Try Kapal bhati, Bhastrika, Nadi Shodhan, and Bhramari pranayama varieties and regularly practice them for maximum effect.

Meditation Heals

When you are meditating your focus will be only one particular object and whenever the mind wanders, you bring your focus back to the object.

Gradually thoughts cease to exist and make you still and thoughtless. You will more engaged in yourself than in the worldly goings on.

Anxiety can be wiped off by meditation. Succeeding in this is a difficult task but even if you succeed partially, you have still succeeded in stabilizing yourself to a great extent.

It helps subdue the effects of the adrenaline rush in our body. The impact of this stress hormone will diminish with time, if you regularly meditate.

Learn Values And You Will Stay Happy And Relaxed

Yama and Niyama can be interpreted as value education. Here you educate yourself by learning how to be content, how not to be greedy, and so on.

Usually, it is from these negativities like greed and discontent that we become stressed and anxious. You can also learn to be clean both inside and outside of yourself and conserve your mental and physical health as well.

Think About What You Can Do For Others

Be the human being you are designed to be. We all have purpose of life and that is to be the perfect human beings and reach a better level of evolution.

Let the situation not mould you into what you do not want to be. You must be a human being just because you are born as one and continue to be your humane self throughout the course of life because that is your duty.

If someone is transgressing the laws of compassion, let them. We are not judges we are only cotravellers in the journey of life. All of us are timed to learn our lessons in life. Forget even if you cant forgive and be happy.

Believe In The Law Of Karma

Karma is the puppeteer that makes us dance to its tunes. You cant avoid the Karma as it follows where ever you go. As per scriptures, it walks beside you when you walk, sits when you sit, sleeps when you sleep but it never lets you escape the consequences of your actions.

If you do not want to suffer, then do not commit errors. This is what it tells us. Even if you run to Timbuktu from Bangalore, you are being observed by Sun and Moon and the mother earth, the primary witnesses to every body's karma.

If something unwarranted happens to you, it is due to the bad karma of the past lifetime. This attitude helps you to sail through even the most impossible situations.

Pray As Much As You Can.

Prayer means many things to us. To some of us, it is daily prayers, to some others it is chanting or singing bhajans.

But belief in a supreme power above gives you a sense of relief and makes you feel that it is his wish that turns the world around.

Behind everything is a divine will which works justly for everybody. Thoughts of God put you back to rest and stability and you can go on with your life with more peace and confidence in the belief that God is behind everything and he takes care
