Yoga Wall Straddle: You can reduce stress by sitting on the floor with one hip next to the wall, lay down on your back, then swing your legs up against the wall, so the blood flow can go to the main organs and upper body.  Hold the pose for 2-3 minutes.  Play some soft solfeggio music to help you relax.  This position is amazing for rest.

Reiki:  a Japanese healing and relaxation technique that helps alleviate pain. There are probably practitioners in your area where you live.   The experience is quite relaxing.  You are asked to lay down on massage table, close your eyes and rest while the practitioner places her/his hands on your shoulders, then place their hands a few inches from your body to create healing energy with intention to your body and mind.  Usually healers have this gift to help others.
