Stress Relief Part 1 of 3

Four Ways to Reconnect with Yourself

When it begins to feel like you’re world is spinning out of control and time constraints, a packed schedule and too many commitments become the norm, it is very easy to become overwhelmed and stressed out. To stay balanced, relaxed and calm, it's necessary every so often to regroup, decompress and focus on yourself.

If you find that the demands on your time are overwhelming, don't be afraid to politely say "no" when someone asks you to do something.
  • Don’t feel guilty. No one person can do it all, so learn your limits and be satisfied with them.
  • Be a little selfish once in a while by scheduling "me time" - it will help keep you in touch with yourself.
  • Try to minimize the commitments you make. Slow down and ask yourself what’s truly important to be done each day.
  • Take time to enjoy the little things. Read a book, take up a hobby, work in the garden or treat yourself to a massage.
This beautiful life you’ve been given is not a dress rehearsal, so please take time to relax and enjoy it.
