Did you know it’s this easy? Relaxation techniques you can do anywhere (11–20)

walking meditation

8.1x Annual Income! Walking Meditation to Build Unstoppable Focus

A method that combines meditation and walking.

You focus on the sensations in the soles of your feet—paying attention to moments like when your foot lifts off and when it makes contact with the ground.

There’s a slow, indoor version and a faster, outdoor version, so you can choose the style that fits your lifestyle.

Recommended for those who want to improve their attention control!

Eye stretches

When you’re doing work on a computer, your eyes get overused.

Circulation tends to become sluggish, but you can draw out your eyes’ strength by moving them thoroughly.

It’s even more effective if you massage your head at the same time.

If you use your eyes a lot on a smartphone, try to do this at least once a day.

Meditation

Meditation is something everyone has heard of at least once, and it’s expected to have various benefits for the mind.

Surprisingly, what many people don’t know is that you don’t have to stop your thoughts during meditation.

It’s also often assumed there are strict rules—like having to sit cross-legged—but that’s not necessarily the case.

Just sit comfortably, focus on your senses, and steady your breathing.

That alone is enough to make it meditation.

Listen to music

When you listen to music you love, your mood naturally lifts and you start to relax, doesn’t it? Many people include soothing café music or healing music that’s been getting a lot of attention.

That blissful time spent listening to your favorite songs with your eyes closed—why not set aside just 10 minutes a day for that kind of slow, relaxing time?
