Do you feel overwhelmed?
That's another way of saying the "s" word that someone brought to my attention yesterday makes people feel even worse when they see it in print...
OK- overwhelmed it is! When we feel overwhelmed, we feel "out of control" and often have physical symptoms that are unpleasant or hidden and dangerous. So..how can we overcome overwhelm, accelerate resilience and be fearless? Here are a few suggestions:
1. Change your mindset-reframe, that is think of possibilities from different perspectives that may be less "worrisome".
2. Set aside self-blame and turn it into gratitude
for what you have and have accomplished.
3. Surround yourself with positive people. That is not always possible, so learn how to "shield" yourself from emotionally or verbally abusive people and acknowledge what they are doing-saying is from their perspective and is not necessarily the truth or "right".
4. Take a few minutes each day to reflect on your
feelings.
5. Set specific goals that are realistic and
attainable.
Create S.M.A.R.T. Goals
6. Practice relaxation techniques on a regular basis.
