You can see, how children keep on playing and acting, tension-free and enjoy time. As adults, you may not have so much spare time, like them and also, you may not be able to kill time, that way; but, you can definitely spare at least one hour, in the whole week, doing childish play, to release your stresses naturally.

Let's try to understand, why that is required.

Every week, you may go through work related stresses-small or big. You may be under different odd situations; may get victimized; may find it difficult to manage monthly expenses and/or borrowings. Or, there may be so many cases, not mentioned here. Due to some of those, mentioned above, you may accumulate stresses or tensions. Also, your brain many not have secretion of sufficient happy hormones e.g. feel good hormone.

It's really harmful for the health of your body and mind, if you allow to accumulate the stresses inside you. So, you need to find out a definite way to release the stresses, on regular basis, before it's too late.

What to do?

Going back to your childhood, at least for one hour, every week, is an effective way. Let's choose that one hour time slot, preferably at every weekend.

But, now the question is : How to utilize that one hour?

Well, you may have an exclusive room or hall, only for children's play, where you can throw anything, without the fear of breaking your window glasses.

Or go to a very big open valley, along-with all the playing stuffs, where you can throw anything, to the sky without hurting anybody's head and where you can do anything you want - jumping, crawling, rolling, singing, reciting, shouting, dancing and acting. Speak on any damn thing, in any damn style. Shout, shout and shout. Scold someone utterly, with as many damn words and enjoy the echos. Sing any song. Play multi roles and act with your own damn script. The natural grass, the trees, the soil and the rocks will be your audiences.

Apparently, you may look like a mad person. But, let you look like that for one hour, every week. Because, within that one hour, you can really convert yourself from a dirty dustbin full of week-long waste & negative thoughts & emotions, to a light & mighty-house.

Disclaimer: Such stress releasing child's acts are meant for your benefits, but may not be the part or substitute for any standard treatment of depression. And also, it's your top responsibility to take utmost care that due to such childish acts of one hour, there is no harm to other living being and environment or to any public or private property.
