Shake, Scream, Sing: Your Guide to Stress Relief

This week we continue to encourage outlets that help you release and reset in unexpected ways. That might look like losing yourself in the collective energy of dance church, freeing jaw and breath tension through chanting and singing, or channeling stress into a playful round of paintball! However you choose, each practice is a reminder that release can be joyful, powerful, and deeply healing.

Dance Church

Dance Church is movement as liberation. It’s not about choreography or performance—it’s about letting your body guide you! The music builds, the room fills with energy, and you’re invited to move however you feel—whether that’s shaking, spinning, or simply swaying with eyes closed. Surrounded by others who’ve also come to release, you tap into something primal and joyful: connection through rhythm. You walk away sweaty, lighthearted, and often surprised by how much tension you’ve let go! Find the closest Dance Church near you HERE.

Paintball

Paintball isn’t just a game—it’s a release. Sprinting, ducking, and strategizing get your body moving, while adrenaline and laughter melt away stress. Unlike a typical workout, it blends teamwork and spontaneity, pulling you fully into the moment. When the match ends, you’re not just tired—you’re lighter, exhilarated, and reset.

Chant and Sing

Your voice is one of the oldest and simplest tools for release. Chanting or singing creates vibrations that soften jaw tension, open the throat, and slow the nervous system. Chanting offers a steady, meditative rhythm, while singing—whether it’s humming, belting your favorite song, or joining others in sound—can instantly lift your mood. However you do it, using your voice turns emotion into movement, leaving you clearer, calmer, and more connected.

Cheers,
