My favorite Magazine arrived (Real Simple) and as usual, I sat down and read it cover to cover immediately.
This month, a featured article...25 Instant ENERGY Boosters
I thought it important to share their # 16 >>> PULL YOUR HAIR.
Yup, not a mistype.
"If you gently take handsful of hair and pull the skin away from your scalp to get blood flowing to that part of the head, you can relieve a lot of potentially tiring tension," says Marlene Merritt, a doctor of Oriental medicine at the Merritt Wellness Center in Auntin, Texas.
Think I'll go pull my hair now...
I find this interesting because I equate it to the phrase, "I'm going to pull my hair out." I figured no one actually did this until I stopped and realized that sometimes if I am overly stressed I pull at the hair on the back of my head. This makes sense now since I'm probably just trying to relieve some tension subconsciously. Good find!
