• Meditating 30 minutes a day, the most effective way to take care of your mental health

Stress has been recognized as the disease of the 21st century by the

World Health Organization

(WHO), a physical reaction that if not controlled leads to serious pathologies, among other

headaches

, inability to fall asleep, gastric discomfort, eruptions. on the skin or anguish, which endangers our

physical and mental health

.

Because what in principle is a defense mechanism - the body tenses and the mind is activated to react to a stimulus - can end up causing real

anxiety

attacks

.

Problems come "when

tension

and

stress

remain active for a long time," explains Olimfit's personal trainer, Miriam López, so the goal is to keep it at bay, which is not an easy thing in the midst of a hectic pace of life and rush.

Relax body and mind

In this sense,

relaxation

exercises

and

mindfulness

are the best allies to

relax

our body and mind.

"We need to implement short exercise routines that give us a

break

to feel like new after a long day," says Miriam López.

How to relax in five minutes

But do we really know how to do them? We asked him.

"In these routines each

exercise

should be aimed at releasing the stiffness in the hips, hamstrings, shoulders, neck and back", he tells us, is the formula that allows the whole body to

relax

.

And this is what he teaches us to do in this

video

, a very short routine, of just five minutes, that we can practice at the end of the day, quietly at home, to free the mind of all the

accumulated

tensions

.

And that will also help us

sleep

better.

Relax and connect with your body.
