How to Overcome ThoughTime In Lagos
With the constantly talked about stress accumulated
due to the busy and bustling lifestyle of the city and its inhabitants,
it might be necessary to look into ways of striking a balance. Life they
say is short; and in the search for financial breakthrough and comfort,
many people forget to live life to the fullest. It would be worthwhile
to spread the stress and ease off tension.
The following tips could help Lagosians clear their heads in Lagos.
1. Create A Schedule: Finding time to map out one’s plans help maintain orderliness. Cluttered thoughts have ways of wearing one out.
The mind gets so busy with unhatched thoughts and plans that at the end of the day one feels unaccomplished. Creating a schedule and planning goals that are realistic and achievable help in relieving stress.
2. Traffic Wise: One can’t help not being stuck in traffic at one point or the other in Lagos. Some people are lucky enough to have their offices located in places that are accessible and against traffic, while others don’t have that luxury. However, being traffic wise could go a notch higher.
Lagosians these days find relaxation spots to hang out and feed their fun deprived bodies at the close of work. They get to chill in these relaxation centres to socialize and ease off the stress of the day.
After a couple of hours, the road would have been free and then they could go home. For resumption however, there are no two ways to go about it. Heading out early is the best.
3.Healthy Living: When one keeps the body physically fit, the mind becomes sounder. In addition to this healthy diets should be taken. Healthy nutrition would help the body fight stress and push the body through the stress of the day.
Most offices and workshops have food vendors delivering food to their doorsteps. Learning to take a break from work and eating helps reduce stress.
4. Learning To Move On: Lagosians are known to be non-dulling people. They may be quick to express their anger and resentment; they don’t allow issues to affect them deeply.
They don’t linger around offensive circumstances for too long. To
have a stress free life, it is important not to let trivial matters rob
one of joy and peace. Moving on is important.
5. Don’t Shut Down On Fun: Apart from the night hang outs one does in order to avoid traffic rush hour, seeing a movie, reading a book or having friends gather at a bar or club are things that keeps the mind running. Lagosians irrespective of the stress they go through on weekdays still find time to groove and party.
Life goes on as it never ends. The city itself has all it takes to have fun; beaches, resorts, bars and restaurants. Every day is a new experience.
6. Sleep: Sleep naturally makes the body relaxed, the nerves are calmed and the body system is recharged. While it may be difficult to get 8 hours of sleep everyday while keeping in line with work and a busy schedule, the ability to rest and take little naps could help revitalize the body.
7. Social Media: Another trick of relieving or reducing stress in Lagos is by joining one or more social media, people could get so caught up with activities that they may not be able to tell what’s going on around them.
Social media keeps one updated and aware of trending topics.
Occasionally, one could take a break even at work or in the traffic and
find reasons to laugh either with silly comments posted on Facebook or
Twitter.
