What’s Stressing You Out?
You may have heard me say this before...But BLOGGING changed my life!I know, I know...As a Christian, Jesus is the one who's really changing meBut after so many years, He must have said "here’s your last chance, Althea"Because it worked!!Nowadays, I write from my heart and share my passionsAnd it's been a fantastic journeyI love the great changes that I see in me.You see, I used to be a control freak.I drove myself, my loved ones and my friends crazy.And I was very, very afraid......Fearful of the known and the unknownAnd fearful of what others think of me.Today, I look back and I breathe a sigh of reliefBecause life is quite different now.Recently, I wrote to you about taking care of yourselfThis week I want to remind you that stress can kill you.Kill your joy, kill your passion, kill your relationships, kill your mojo..... you name it... it can die because of stress.Almost anything can cause stress..... happy events or unhappy events.Just the word stress may be enough to set your nerves on edge.We all react differently to stressful situations, but stress can weigh you down and become heavier over time.Some signs of your body's response to stress are:
- Headaches
- Chest pain
- Stomach pain
- Difficulty sleeping
- Short tempered
- Depression
- Fatigue
It's important to know your limits and control how you respond or chose to respond to stressful situations.So, take a good look at your life and ask yourself:Is it worth it?Whatever it is that’s stressing you out….Is it worth it?If it’s not, find the courage to do what you need to do to get rid of it.Stressors, good and bad, are a part of every life but too much stress can make our journey through life difficult.Listen to your body and practice stress management techniques to help you hike through life at a steady pace.It's never going be easy.But it’s worth it!Start now.Until next time…..
“You must learn to let go. Release the stress. You were never in control anyway.” - Steve Maraboli
