Stress makes seemingly uncomplicated activities overwhelming, preventing us from feeling better and managing our wellbeing. We examine how to identify stressors and develop practical strategies to overcome them.
• Identifying what's "uncomplicated" in our lives – exercise, meal prep, water intake, and self-care time
• Understanding how transitional periods like September increase stress through multiple changes
• Exploring common stressors: finances, family responsibilities, health concerns, and time management
• Examining stress impacts: emotional (frustration, anxiety), physical (headaches, sleep issues), and long-term health risks
• Conducting a time audit reveals most people have about 30 hidden hours weekly for self-care
• Learning from the female octopus – a cautionary tale about neglecting personal needs while caring for others
• Creating a four-step action plan: identify stressors, evaluate impact, reduce stress, and build support
• Practicing stress-reduction techniques like deep breathing, visualization, and listening to calming music
Take time this week to conduct your own time audit and identify at least one stress-reduction technique you can implement consistently. Remember that everything on your to-do list doesn't matter if you don't have the energy and strength to complete it.
Stepping into this next chapter of health should feel empowering not overwhelming.
Simplify your journey to better health with our holistic approach to managing stress, mindfully eating, and moving more.
Beautifully well in 30 Days, the overwhelmed woman's guidebook to a clearer, realistic path to better health is available on Amazon. It includes one of our favorite meal plans you can use a blueprint to healthier eating.
