I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed.
We are still looking for the kitty’s home.
We are working on our biggest order to date that has a hard deadline.
And my body doesn’t seem to want to cooperate and has started to rebel.
So it’s definitely time to remember to breathe.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Repeat.
The universe never gives us more than we can handle – this I know for sure.
There are many great techniques we can use to calm
ourselves down when life feels overwhelming.
Here are just a few:
Breathe.
Stay present and mindful.
Meditate.
Be grateful for everything that is working in your life.
Shift your focus.
Switch gears – do something completely different that has nothing to do with the tasks at hand. This will help you get perspective, so you can come back fresh with a clear head.
Do something fun.
Organize your tasks so that they are more manageable.
And then only focus on one task at a time. And if that task is large, turn it into micro tasks. This will help you stay focused and not spiral into the “Oh my gosh, how will I ever get this all done?” mode.
Feel free to share ways you stay focused and calm when you start to feel overwhelmed.
For now, let’s all take one more deep breath together.
Inhale.
Exhale.
And let it go.
Ahhh…
