Category: How can I deal with Stress?

Monday…

How did it feel to wake up this morning? Did you wake up excited about the start of a new week? Did you wake up feeling anxious and grumpy?

Get control over your Monday! If you woke up feeling anxious and grumpy, there are 2 things you can do to change that.

1. Change what you are doing in your life immediately.  If the thought of going into your job today gives you chest pain, and you continue down that road for long enough, it will consume you.  Do not be afraid of change.  Embrace it.

2. Change your thinking about what you do!

“The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes, but in liking what one does.”
James M. Barrie

If you simply must do what you are doing, but it has been leaving a foul taste in your mouth, you need to change your thinking.  You do have control! Start by changing every negative thought you have about what you do into a positive one.  Stop complaining about where you are, especially if you are not prepared to make a change.  Be thankful for what you have and you will start enjoying it!

There are only 2 choices.  Start your Happy Monday plan today.

Namaste!

 

Not Just Another Manic Monday

Good Morning! Want to start your Monday off smoothly, instead of Manically? You have to start planning for Monday on Sunday! On Sunday, write a list of things you will want / need to get done on Monday. Then, do as much prep work for Monday on Sunday. Prepare lunches, pick out clothes, get coffee / tea ready to go, tidy up, put things in the car you will need for Monday. You will sleep so much better on Sunday night! Then on Monday morning, make sure you get up early enough to NOT FEEL RUSHED. Mondays just got a whole lot better. Namaste!

Monday doesn’t have to suck!

If the thought of waking up to your current job on Monday morning gives you an anxious feeling in your stomach, you need to do something about it! Perhaps you need to look for another job… one that you are excited to wake up to every day! Perhaps the very thought of having ANY job starts your palms sweating! Remember that thoughts are things.  Mondays can be amazing if you are doing what you love, or if you change your mindset and start loving what you already do! You have all the power you need in your own head to make Mondays your favorite day.   Change is good, so go ahead and have a Happy Monday, starting today!

Thursday Tip

Are you always rushing in the morning? Do you find you just never have enough time for breakfast, or anything else in the morning? You need to get up earlier! Set your alarm for 1 hour earlier than it is set for now.  Get up when the alarm goes off, and get ready to go! You will feel an incredible sense of calmness when you add this time, and it will start your day off positively.  You will have time for breakfast, reading your book, sneaking in some exercise (running or yoga), or catching up on emails.  You may need to adjust your bedtime a little so that you are still getting adequate sleep, but your body will adjust within 2 days! Enjoy the quiet of your house before everyone else gets up, and revel in the magic of the sunrise every morning.  Namaste!
