I hope you have (or shall I really say) I hope you will take five minutes from your day and watch this Ted talk on stress and how it affects your body. We all need to manage stress, can't avoid it, but do we really understand what it does to our bodies? To our gut? Yuk! I'm gonna go Om for 20 minutes....I'm thinking maybe you should too.
But really, you don't need to chant (it seriously helps to sit still and chant or just clear your mind as much as posssible). Just do something to combat the stress. Take a walk in nature. Dance to your favorite songs. And of course there's yoga. Yoga is the best way to de-stress and work out at the same time. I've always beena "two birds with one stone" kinda girl. So yoga it the bomb for me. Sitting still and meditating....oh boy, that's a hard one. So I do it. I challenge myself. Because I feel like a badass unicorn when I do things that are hard for me. Even if it is "just" sitting still. Can you sit still for five minutes and try to concentrate on your breath? Accept a thought when it enters and then ask it to float away like a fluffy little cloud? Give it a shot. It takes practice. As does everything challenging and worthwhile in life. Enjoy, and please tell me how this goes for you. I challenge you to sit. For five minutes. Every damn day. For only five days. Then get back to me. Namaste. _
