Thursday's Thoughts #11 - 08 Wellness

Wellness

#7. Choose serenity when you need it. Unmanaged stress is at epidemic levels, you can’t medicate it away, though millions surely try. Coping is impossible – there are simply way too many events and circumstances producing stress. Eventually, you will succumb (get ill, act crazy, wet your pants) to daily pressures, anxieties, fears and so on. Learn lifestyle artistry, beginning with a different mindset about stress that acknowledges that you have a choice as to how to perceive and respond to all events and circumstances that could potentially provoke the stress response Choose an outlook that enables you to be serene at a moment’s notice, no matter what. Be coherent! Learn SAHEMs (Self Applied Health Enhancement Maneuvers) like yoga, meditation, pilates, prayer, exercise, massage or mindfulness of the moment
