Tea ceremony
Take a moment to pause during your day and make a cup of tea with intention. Include herbal plants such as chamomile, lavender and raspberry leaf for their sleepy vibes. However that is an extravagant way to drink tea and basic tea bags can be used if you prefer. The idea is to be aware of every action that comes into the making of tea. From flipping the switch of the kettle or turning on the hob, to adding the tea bag to a cup and pouring the water. Mixing, adding milk and drinking. No other distractions, just concentrating on any feelings as they arise. The physical touch of the hot cup in your hands and emotional comfort as the liquid warms your body from the inside out. You deserve to give yourself this time. As you allow the warm soothing effect light up your soul.
The Japanese were onto something when they created sacred tea ceremonies.

Make room for a 10 minute break with nature
Water your houseplants, step outside into your garden or even leave your home and go walk through a park. Something as simple as standing in the sunlight getting that vitamin D and feeling the rays on your skin feels wonderful. Add one step further and put your bare feet in contact with the earth for some grounding energy. During my lunch breaks at an old very stressful job I would go to a park down the road and sit on the grass barefooted and the stresses of the work day would melt away.

Frequency music
You may be called kooky for believing in the benefits of solfeggio frequencies but no one has yet denied feeling relaxed as they sit in the room with me. Personally I use them for all sorts of moods from concentration, chakra balancing and to what this blog post is about. They are perfect for background noise when I’m reading and I often use them during meditation because they help me stay present.
The main seven Solfeggio frequencies:
396 Hz – Liberating Guilt and Fear (root chakra)
417 Hz – Undoing Situations and Facilitating Change (Sacral chakra)
528 Hz – Transformation and Miracles (DNA Repair) (Solar Plexus chakra)
639 Hz – Connecting/Relationships (Heart chakra)
741 Hz – Expression/Solutions (Throat chakra)
852 Hz – Returning to Spiritual Order (Brow chakra)
963 Hz – Higher Frequency (Crown chakra)
