Weight Loss Surgery Support:
Daily Inspiration for September 11, 2009
Katie Jay, MSW

Develop tranquility.

 

Stress, as you know all too well, can easily lead to weight gain and the overall sabotage of your WLS lifestyle. Yet, many WLS patients simply don't know how to deal with this potentially harmful emotion.

 

There are many effective and natural means of reducing stress that don't cost a penny, including nature walks, deep breathing, enhancing sleep quality, relaxation exercises, meditation, visualization, and guided imagery.

 

Action for the day: Choose an activity that will reduce your stress, and engage in it today.
