When the pressure is on, it's easy for us to crack under it.  Are you able to remain calm and poised or do you fly off the handle like a madman when things are getting out of whack?

I used to be the second one above many, many years ago and then I quickly learned that it wasn't going to do my health any good so I learned how to adjust and become more peaceful when handling stress.

It's never easy when we're faced with challenging moments.  Our fight or flight response will always kick into high gear leaving us frazzled and exhausted.

 

Today's quick episode contains a podcast I did about this topic,  then I actually had a challenging moment, and I recorded another message while I was in the thick of it.  

 

Remember when you're in that stress zone to stay as calm as possible and remember "this too shall pass".

 

Here are some books on the subject that will help with all of the above:

When Life Sucks

Stress Proof

Stress Management...

 

Hang in there my friends and think Zen!!
