Stress Less


Stress can happen because you are trying to get a lot of things done – it’s natural.
If you are constantly under stress, then you may need a few mechanisms for coping with it. 

Start here – breathe in and out, deep breaths,
         take a minute and make a tea,
         stop and write down what needs to be done vs what you want to get done;

Get sleep, take a nap – don’t sacrifice sleep so that you can get everything done – it doesn’t work and can  lead to lack of energy, mood-swings and more ugly symptoms that keep you from being you!

When you get up from your nap - not guilt-ridden, you deserve it - look at your list and pick one thing to get done today.  Only one - and do it all the way, so that you can draw a nice line through it and move on tomorrow.  Yeah ME!

Remember, tomorrow is always there, and there will always be something on your to-do list for it.
Imagine what you will do when you run out of things on your to-do list?
