Top Relaxation Tips for Nurses
Healthcare professionals spend long hours donned in uniform scrubs and nursing shoes trying to cope with the stressful demands of patient care while fatigued from working long, fast paced hours on hard floors. At the end of the work day an overworked stress response floods your body with chemicals creating an agitated, excited state. But while the stress response is helpful in an emergency where alertness is a necessity, it wears your body down when it is constantly activated.
Nurses need to find easy ways to handle or relieve stress and fatigue. Continual pressure a nurse's body can cause serious health issues such as heart problems, high blood pressure, sleep disorders, stroke, cancer, digestive problems and more. You can't avoid all stress, but you can help counteract its negative effects on the body by learning how to bring about a relaxation response. The relaxation response isa state of deep rest that is just the opposite of the stress response. The relaxation response brings the body back into a natural balance. It is characterized by deepened breathing, a slower heart rate and lower blood pressure, thus relaxing muscles and reducing hormones. Research indicates this calming response can help alleviate the aches and pains caused by working long hours on hard floors.
After work relaxation is especially important for healthcare workers. Taking 10 – 20 minutes after work each day to remove uniform scrubs, kick off the nursing shoes and settle into a relaxation practice is highly beneficial. Once the basics of relaxation techniques are learned it is easy to slip into a calming state.
There is no set relaxation technique that is best. Some examples of the most popular techniques are: meditation, visualization, deep breathing, self-massage, music therapy, aromatherapy, snuggling with a pet, yoga or a simple cup of hot tea. It is important to choose a relaxation method that fits personality, lifestyle and fitness level. Some people need time alone after a long day at work. But if you need a more social environment, sign up for a yoga or Pilates class. It is also not necessary to choose only one method of relaxation technique. If variety is more desirable then using several techniques is a more appropriate and appealing option. Fortunately there are many options to choose from, and which technique for relaxation that you pick will depend on what's causing your tension and stress, and what symptoms you're experiencing
Practice makes perfect when it comes to techniques for relaxation so give a technique a chance to work before dropping it and moving to another. The body's natural relaxation response is a powerful antidote to stress. Using relaxation techniques can help you access this response. These relaxation techniques lead to a reduction in everyday stress levels and a boost in your feelings well-being. They also serve as a protective agent by eliciting calm responses to life's unexpected developments, thereby helping to make everyone's day, both at home and on the job a little easier to cope with.
