Stress...No, Nope, Nah

Stress is a fact of life, but being stressed out isn't. Small changes in our lifestyle can make a big difference in the way we feel. We have all heard how we should get 30 minutes of exercise several times a week, get a good night sleep and that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but one of the hardest things for most of us to do is to prioritize and just say “No”.

Sure it's easier to say yes, but trying to do everything is a one-way ticket for disaster. Besides, yes isn't always the best answer and saying no can actually be good for you. It's really not a selfish act, it's just a simple little word and an important part of simplifying your life. In fact, it may be the most beneficial thing that you can do for your family and your other commitments.

So give yourself permission and say it out loud...No, Nope, Nah! - CT
