"For fast-acting relief, try slowing down."
Lily Tomlin
In today's fast paced hectic, "try to get it all done world," sometimes the only solution to the stress that builds up is to slow down.
It is weird but the fastest way to get me tense is to be told to relax. How does it work for you? When someone suggests that you slow down and relax, what is your response. Do you get defensive explaining, "if only I could but I have so much to do." Or do you find that when you are told to relax you tense up?
It is definitely funny what we do to ourselves. Humans are a strange species...LOL
Be Happy as often as you can. Squeeze in some fun. Help others to have a nicer day by sharing a smile or being patient in a line. You can think of something. Making yourself and others happy will have a miraculous way of helping relieve stress whether you slow down or keep racing through your days.
