Episode Details

This month’s theme is Stress Management and you can get the free worksheet at AffirmationPod.com/Stress 

There've been times I've told myself "let's not wait until stress builds up and things go dramatically wrong before making a change."

I don't need to remind us - or maybe I do? - that stress ages us, it puts us more prone to illness or disease. We don't sleep as well, we don't think as clearly. For me, it shows up in how I talk, my facial expressions, on my skin etc.

So in this audio blog episode, I share how I've taken action by doing things to reduce and prevent stress in me and in my life. The ones I highlight are:

1.  Made bold decisions, a recent one is I quit my job
2. Give myself wiggle room, I am really careful not to overschedule and overcommit myself
3. Put money into stress reduction, I purchased food warmers for hosting and entertaining
