Stressed Out? Shake it OFF

So you're stressed out and shaking inside. Maybe you're angry. Maybe there's too much adrenalin coursing through your veins. Maybe you just want to run away. But the reality is you can't. You're at work.

Try this to release some of that stress:

Walk calmly to the bathroom (this might just be an Oscar winning performance).

Close the stall door.

Pick up your right leg and shake it, like you are trying to shake something icky off the sole of your shoe. Put it down and try the left leg. Then shake both arms down by your sides (make sure you don't smack you hands into the stall walls). Then shake them above your head. I know it sounds a little like the hokey pokey.

Then shake your booty (now really sounds like the hokey pokey).

Then shake your entire body. If there is no one else in the bathroom with you, make a little noise too (my kids do it all the time and they are stress free).
