If you’re experiencing stress, you’re probably not responding to life; you’re reacting to it.
What is causing you to react?
Can you see that how you are mentally processing what happened or is happening is causing your stress?
Your response is a choice.
“Let it go. Whatever it is, let it go.” -Michael Singer, The Untethered Soul (Read this book if you are in a bad place!)
What rituals or activities can you put in place to turn things around? Reading the right books. Eating healthy food. Getting enough sleep. Walk out in nature. Exercise (very good!)
Take control of your mental processes and your worldly experience.
It’s your mind, and you are in charge.
“It’s your mind and, and you are in charge.” I like that.
Thank you for todays message about experiencing stress. Thanks for writing your posts everyday
Today, I needed to hear this.
“A matter of perspective”. Without a basis for comparison, even the smallest stressors we manage can seem like proverbial mountains, not the molehills they really are. Add healthy stressors to your life, like exercise, that will even the mental playing field. My favorite healthy stressor is competition, be it a sport, racing, or even a game, where you can focus on overcoming the performance of your universal opponent: yourself. If you can add challenges to overcome your own self-doubt, then the next molehill you encounter will be just that, a molehill.
