Happy Tuesday beautiful hearts! Can you touch the remnants of the last time you experienced a stressful situation in your life? I received this beautiful reminder in my inbox yesterday from www.mindful.org and felt compelled to share it. It's one thing to talk about combating stress, but it's another thing to have tools to create new habits in our lives. Cheers to the journey my friends! May we walk through our lives awake and aware! I hope you enjoy the excerpt below from mindful.org.
May You Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude,

When we’re experiencing stress, we might do two things: reject the feeling (“I don’t want to be stressed out again!”) or downplay how we’re feeling (“I’m fine, it’s just stress.”). Both approaches attempt to distance us from the stress—which inevitably does the opposite.
Mindfulness interrupts this avoidance loop so we can introduce new habits. The more we practice, the more we can break free from the cycle of stress.
1) Settle the brain and body with intentional breathing. Try this simple yet effective deep breathing practice.
2) Build stress-busting practices into your day. Here are 11 mindfulness tips to curb stress in daily life.
3) Pay it forward. When someone close to you says, “I’m stressed,” here are 7 ways you can increase your empathetic listening skills for a more compassionate response.
