My friend Ginger gave me a nice gift set when I announced I was engaged, it is called the Zen Bride. It has in it some bath salts, room mist, an eye mask, body lotion, a candle and a book called, what else, but the "Zen Bride". The book is by Nora Cabrera. The book gives you great suggestions on how to relax and not get stressed from all of the wedding planning. It can really help you focus on what really matters....you becoming a Mrs.
Here are some quick tips to help you relax,so that you can become a Zen Bride.
- If you need to yell, yell into a pillow...take your frustrations out on it and not anyone else.
- Do something nice for someone...maybe even yourself.
- Get your dance on.
- Exercise and get your heart pumping.
- Get outside. It is finally summer enjoy it.
- Make sure that you get your beauty rest.
- Take your vitamins.
- Have a pajama party and relax with your girls.
- Be content. (This one maybe hard when you want, what you want for your wedding)
- Laugh alot and often.
- Breathe. Taking several deep breaths can help alot.
You have any suggestions on how to become a Zen Bride. Please share. We can all use a little help during our wedding planning process to reduce our stress.
