Acupressure Points to Calm and Balance the Emotions

There are times when use fiftyish divas can get a bit frazzled.  Rather than creating new worry lines, try these simple exercises you can use to re-center your emotions throughout the day.  Press the center of the palm with the opposite hand's fingertip or thumb.  Switch and press the other hand.  This is a strong emotional balancing point for harmonizing the mind and spirit.  Or place your fingertips on the back of your ears, then glide them up to the top of your head in the center (the apex of the top of the ears....it's the indentation on the top of the skull) then use the middle finger of your other hand to press into the upper lip just under the nose.  Straighten your spine and take long, slow deep breaths for one minute.  Or place both hands on the upper outer chest region (just inside the shoulder joint on the front of the chest).  Make the sound of ahhh when you exhale your breath.  Or briskly rub both legs with your knuckles, four finger-widths below the kneecap and one finger-width outside both shinbones.  Do this for two minutes. (This also helps increase your energy level).  Walk vigorously while swinging your arms and breathing deeply.  Source: Acupressure for Emotional Healing by Michael Reed Gach, PhD and Beth Ann Henning, Dipl.
