I love Piko-Piko breathing. Can you recommend any other instant stress busters? My boss at work is driving me crazy.
Thanks,

Dear Rushed,
Yes, if judgments ever run through your head, they’re stressing you out – and can lead to lots of health problems. Hawaiian mind-body medicine teaches that any criticism, whether of your boss, yourself or the weather, leads to tension in your body, raising blood pressure, blood sugar and stress hormones. For instant relief from this “mental stress,” spend just one minute doing “Saturation Praise,” complimenting everything you like about yourself, your boss (if only his tie), your yoga practice, your chakras, your world, and watch relaxation set in.
Namaste!
