245: How to Embrace Change and Stay Calm In the Time of Crisis w/ Nicole Mixdorf

If You Want to Stay Calm in Times of Crisis You Should:

Start listening to your body during times of stress and build awareness around your bodies signals.

 Be intentional about how you start your day and how you want to show up in the world.

Incorporate small things into your morning routine that will set you up for success.

Get curious about what you are feeling, label it, and sit with it instead of running from it.

Practice letting go of control and accept that your reality is often something you cannot control.

Shift your mindset to focus on the opportunities that your stress can bring you.

Have faith that your current situation will bring you to the best-case scenario.

 
You know the stress you feel about changes out of your control? Have you ever considered that these changes could actually be a positive thing? 
By focusing on the best case scenario you can move through your stress response system, shift your state of mind, and set yourself up through self-care rituals that take no extra time out of your busy day.

Getting Over Your Overwhelm
Your autonomic nervous system, or your stress response system, plays a huge role in managing your overall health. During crazy times such as these, when our feelings of overwhelm are at an all-time high, it is crucial to learn how to navigate uncontrollable change without overloading our perceived stress.
Stress is one of the most insidious root causes of many health issues, and without the right tools and strategies to create balance and let your intensity go, your candle will totally burn out. The good news is that you can implement small things in your pre-existing daily routine that takes no time at all. These mindset shifts and tools to build awareness within your body can have a radical change on your stress levels day today.
 
Letting Go of Control and Embracing Acceptance
Gratitude practices, essential oils, and deep breathing techniques can help you switch your stress response system tracks and change your state of mind. Instead of expecting change to bring you somewhere worse, focus on how that change could bring you somewhere better. 
Some of the most extraordinary things that happen in life are just on the other side of fear. When you can accept your reality, sit with how you are feeling, and have faith that whatever is coming your way is supposed to be part of your human experience, you can let go of control and look within yourself to find healing.
