or sprinkle on a tissue and inhale.

the thumb and first finger of the other hand
Try some spiritual nourishment
Try Meditating. Close your eyes take some deep breaths and try gently
chanting "ohmmmm" this is calming, eases the symptoms of stress and
fatigue and can even improve your memory. At worst, it'll make you laugh.

Feng Shui your Desk....
The office environment is very "yang" (masculine) say Feng Shui devotees:
busy, harsh and hard. Try a plant or some pretty flowers on your desk
which will reintroduce yin energy - soft, gentle and calm - and eases
stress levels. Plants are also good absorbers of negative energy.
Keep a crystal on your desk(amethyst or smokey quartz are good for
protecting your energies and aura (the electromagnetic field around
the body) against the draining effects of computers)... also protects
you from the office bore!. Learn more about crystals at
our associate site www.crystallight.co.uk
Close your eyes and visualise the colour green or pale blue -
these are the most relaxing colours! Breathe these colours through the
whole body focus the pale blue into tense shoulders or the head if you
are suffering from a tense headache
Allow yourself to daydream ....
for a few minutes become the Harry Potter of the office engage
with unicorns, swim with dolphins in a turquoise sea, play with fairies
.. and you will find your creativity and spark returning.....
