If you could ask Santa Claus for a method or a process or a way of handling the stress in your life, what would it do? What would it look like?
For example, meditation has helped me stay calm under stress - but the outer stress is still there.
Maybe learning to work better in teams, to get some stress off your shoulders - but then there’s the stress of working with other people!
I’d like to know what other people think.
Thank you.
Hello
That is a MASSIVE question, that Is difficult to answer all here.
The best way to release stress is to ‘Mind Dump.’
By this I mean take a piece of paper, or what ever you can get you hands on and wright everything down that is on your mind. I do mean EVERYTHING. It could be the clothes you need to get ready to get your kids to school in the morning, preparing the report that is due on your bosses desk at 9am or you need to pick up some dog food at the store, before Paddy starves!! This isn’t a 30 second job, take 5,10… an hour if you need to do this. I coached one person who had that much on his mind that this took a full morning. Once everything that is on your mind, is now not on your mind, close your eyes and take a big deep breath…. How do you feel?? (let me know I never get board of that part).
That isn’t it though. Everything you just wrote down now needs organizing into a system or your brain wont let go of it. Try putting these thoughts into some kind of diary, to-do order, or even better, a system to give them a slot in your life when you can deal with them one by one. DO NOT LET THEM CREEP BACK UP INTO YOUR HEAD!! Any new thoughts add them to your piece of paper. (If you would like further advice on this part let me know)
Your brain is an excellent gathering tool, but struggles to cope with more than seven tasks at a time, and as such can cause stress issues. Free it up to think and problem solve, don’t clutter it up with the 1000+ things that could be organized else where.
Einstein didn’t know his own telephone number, as he would not use his enormous brain to store information he could assess in other means!!
Its worth a thought.
If I could be of anymore assistance to anyone I would love to help.

Positive thinking is so important in life. Have hope and pray about your life. Know that God can help you live a better life if you want Him to help you. You can have a personal relationship with God by saying the prayer below. God is our Creator, all-knowing, all-powerful, eternal, holy, love. God loves us and sent us His Son, Jesus Christ, so we can go to heaven if we know and follow Him. Forever means without end — time on and on without death. Forever is what happens after we die. Either we go to heaven and be with God forever, or we go to hell which is very bad and painful forever. The good people who are saved believers in Jesus Christ go to heaven. The bad people go to hell. We need to know and follow God in this world to get to heaven in the next world. We follow God by loving and obeying Him and loving others for Him. Jesus Christ, God’s Son, is our bridge to God. Jesus died on the cross to cancel our sins. We need to accept Jesus into our life as our Lord and Savior forever to receive God’s blessing and forgiveness plus go to heaven to be with God forever after we die. This is about being a born-again Christian. Faith in God is a gift from God. You can pray for faith in God. Just speak out and ask God for the faith to believe in Him and to follow Him. Some people find faith in God when they realize the beauty in the world is made by God. Evolution can’t explain the world’s natural beauty, for example, the parks in the world, animals, flowers, peacocks, sunsets, butterflies, rainbows, etc. After you have your faith on, you can pray a sinner’s prayer to be a born-again Christian. This prayer is very important and should be said with a sincere heart and faith in God. This is the prayer: "Dear God, I know that I am a sinner and that Jesus Christ is the sacrifice for our sins. I have done the following sins (state these out) and I pray to discontinue these sins. I pray to receive Jesus Christ into my life as my Lord and Savior forever. In Jesus’ name, amen." I’m Lutheran and I like the Baptist churches too. You could check out a Christian church and also see about their weekly Bible study group as a good way to learn about God’s will for your life. You can pray to God about your daily life and have a Christian church pray for you.
