Stress - Yoga Lesson

Focus on your breath can take you a long way in letting go of stress.

When things seem to be a bit too much to handle and stress is getting the best of you, breathe.

Breathe and then remind yourself that the emotion causing stress will pass.

Start to breathe and take the focus of the breath to the areas of the body that you are holding your stress.  You may start to slowly and clearly identify where the stress is originating from when practicing this.  

Identifying the source of the stress may help you to identify the attachment to the stressor.

When you see your attachment to the issue causing the stress, you can practice moving on and letting it go.  Then you can focus on finding a calm breath and a relaxed mind and body.

Realizing the source and attachment, and then practicing letting it go, will help you in achieving a task that is easier said than done!
