Three 5-Minute Mini Relaxation Exercises for ADD’ers
5 minute break can really help recharge, & refocus
Posted May 19, 2011
For many with ADD, learning to relax can be hard. Taking a little time during your day is just as
important. For me, taking a quick 5 minute break can really help me recharge, refocus, reprioritize and come back into a much more productive place.
Here are three things I find very helpful:
1. Music - find a place to relax away from distractions and listen to some easy going music for one or two songs. Ideally, and iPod with headphones.
2. Lay down look at ceiling with your knees and feet elevated up, relax for 5 minutes.
3. Sit in a comfortable place and take deep relaxing breaths for 5 minutes.
That's it, it really doesn't take much. Oh, and as an ADD'er you'll need to schedule when you do this or you'll never get around to doing it! :)
