On Mondays after breakfast we have public presentations on free themes. Every time one of us tells the others something what (s)he is interested in and what might be useful to the colleagues. So I and some others have to remember the times from the school and break the ice of the fear of an audience. The circle will go round and there will be my turn to speak again. As a reminder to myself, I am noting a few tips about relaxing by Stefan Spies.
- While having stressful situations, it’s suggested to locate in which parts of the body physical stretching is felt. Then one should try to release the muscles of that area. It’s obscene, isn’t it?
- The events for the week or the day could be divided into parts and each part could get the points of importance. When you fully understand your state, you can take less attention for the small problems and more to the more important ones. You should better not fly this list unless you don’t care that somebody can conceive how unimportant (s)he is to you.
- In the case of worrying, one should try breathing very deeeeeeply by the stomach, but not the breast. One can even count the breaths. Hey! Don’t fall asleep, OK?
- The TODO list always helps to manage the situation. When you define priorities and the time for relaization, you should throw all the inconsiderable and dalayable tasks, until there is time for them.
- The exercise of stretching/releasing of muscles should relax the psychological stagnancy as well. It’s said that you have to go through all your muscles one at a time in your mind and stretch and release them periodically. Hopefully, the colleagues won’t laugh about this brake dance.
- The last tip was to use your fantasy and to find your own ways to relax. For example, drawing and rollerskating should help me. Just try to do that during your presentation.
Anyway, everything comes with practice.
