Get Into a Yoga State of Mind
Get Into a Yoga State of Mind You've likely heard that yoga is mind-body-and-spirit satisfying, but for good measure, we'll reiterate that fact here. A session (or even a few moves) will help you refresh, inside and out, to diminish stress and create a balance of calm. If you don't have time to get to the gym, you can easily do some "home" ohm with a DVD, explains Betsy Seligman, a Chicago-based yoga instructor and creator of Yogatude. No time for even at-home yoga? Take just a minute to do some deep breathing (perfect for when you feel like you're about to explode in your cubicle). We often hold our breath when we're tense, and this will instantly help create a sense of calm.

Reading my favorite beauty magazine is always relaxing to me while laying on bed.

I keep a journal. It helps me relax because I find that I start writing angry and end up laughing about it.

Reading a book or vegging out with a favorite movie or TV show are nice ways to relax, too!

eating cookies and shopping...sounds like those would cause more stress and weight gain

I do a lot of things when I'm stressed out - but my personal favorite is cooking so this article is right about baking cookies.
