Hi everyone! It is so difficult to stay on top of all of our responsibilities. However, it is necessary that we consistently take care of the things that we must. I myself have a large family (six children!)and with that comes much responsibility. It is like walking a tight rope many times attempting to take care of everyone and everything without going insane. But, I have gotten use to the chaos. Here are a few tips to get over the "I can't take all of this" feeling:
1. Make lists. I know that sounds old fashioned, but I have found that seeing things in black and white often brings clarity.
2. Program appointments into your cellphone and set reminders. It will alert you to upcoming responsibilities and help you stay on track.
3. Schedule time for yourself. Go get a mani/pedi, hang with your friends, go to the movies--do whatever makes you happy at least once a week.
4.Maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating well and exercising. If you are well and healthy, you can better deal with stress. Also, I have found exercise is a great way to alleviate stress. Once those endorphins start releasing, I feel GREAT!
Follow these quick tips to relieve some of the pressure . Stress is a normal occurrence in life, however, you are not to live each waking moment on high alert for the next stressful event. Take a deep breath and enjoy life because, you only get one!
