Our Method3 Fitness coaches want you to do a quick stress test. Are you caring extra stress in your body so often that it now feels normal? Check in with yourself right now… Are you clenching your jaw? Are your shoulders tensed up towards your ears? You’re not alone. If you tend to hold stress in your body… Here’s a quick and easy body scan exercise you can do 1-2 times a day to help you recognize when you’re stressed and manage it before it gets out of hand: Continue to focus your attention gradually down your body, through your neck, shoulders, arms, back, chest, abs, hips, legs, and feet Pause at each area to notice any tension, and then relax those areas Breathe naturally If you’ve been stressed for a while, you might notice that your muscles start to tense up again almost immediately after doing the scan. Over time it will get easier — especially if you make room for other stress-busting habits in your routine, like regular exercise. Plus you’ll find that when you feel less stressed, you not only feel better, you’re able to bring more of yourself to everything you do. That’s why when our Method3 Fitness coaches work with clients, we don’t just check in about food and workouts… Together, we'll create a personalized plan, celebrate your successes, and tackle any challenges that come your way.
