Breathing exercises are a great stress reliever. I wish I was good at doing them.
Here is a suggestion. You said your last day at work is September 7. Like a child waiting for Christmas or a birthday to arrive, it feels like it in the forever distance.
Find a phrase that you like and each morning while you are getting ready for work repeat those 'positive' words over an over again. Take those words to work with you and BELIEVE them. Something like..
- I can do this! This day is one less day I have to work at this job
Also, put a calendar on the wall and put a big X on each day, using a wide tip marker. It will seem that much more final that the day is done, "one less day..."
Then there is the matter of letting go of all the anger you have towards all the elements of your job...boss, co-workers, etc. Read the quotation below, it says is quite well.
Another words, do you really want to continue to expend so much energy on anger, returning home each day exhausted, unable to sleep and more depressed. Or do you want to place that energy living the best way you can.
Quote:
It really doesn't matter if the person who hurt you deserves to be forgiven. Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself. You have things to do and you want to move on.
