Physical stress can build strength and endurance, but emotional stress wreaks havoc on body, mind and spirit. Some stress is inevitable like loss and disappointment, but most is self-created, such as, taking other’s words and actions personally, trying to uphold a false sense of self and believing our own fearful thoughts. Nothing is really personal, there’s ultimately nothing to fear and we absolutely can’t control what others think of us. The best thing to do when we’re feeling emotionally stressed is to just breathe and drop our stories, because very few of them…
Are true.
