Living a stress-free life

Living a stress-free life in today’s fast-paced world might seem like an unattainable goal, but there are practical steps and secrets you can incorporate into your daily routine to significantly reduce stress levels.

Here are some strategies for cultivating a more peaceful, stress-free existence:

Prioritize Self-Care

Make time for activities that nurture your body, mind, and soul.

This could include exercise, meditation, reading, or pursuing a hobby you love.

Self-care is not selfish; it’s essential for maintaining your mental and physical health.

Accept the problem

You have to be at peace with a problem,

WHILST it is in existence, for the solution to come to you. i.e. you have to accept yourself where you are, no matter what – you cannot solve any problem without first accepting it, and yourself.

We spend so much of our time trying to deny what has happened or deny a part of ourselves, pushing it away, which only leads to more of the problem appearing in your life.

Very often simply fully accepting the part of you that is creating the problem will be enough to have it disappear, as it is so used to being pushed away/rejected.

Part of you is trying to send you a message; maybe it’s time you listened.

You cannot attract to you, that to which you are not already connected

So be an appreciator.

One of the fastest ways to attract what you want towards you is learning to appreciate the good in whatever situation it is life is presenting you with.

Being an appreciator is so important because it is the closest energetic vibrational match to source and therefore the creation of what it is that you want.

Therefore the more you operate at that frequency, the closer to source you are, and the faster things will manifest for you in the physical world.

It is not important to verbalise your appreciation but simply to offer it.

Appreciation is the antidote to some of the lowest forms of energy and emotions we are capable of e.g. shame, resentment, etc.

By offering thanks and assuming that you already have what you seek, you immediately begin to attract more of it towards you, whether you have any of it or not.

Happiness is not pleasure

The experience of pleasure is a right now, in-the-moment, sensory-rich, and sights, sounds, and feelings experience in your person.

Happiness is your meta-experience when thinking about something that brings you such pleasure.

Happiness cannot be experienced by the senses directly, only pleasure can.

Focus your life on having more now-moment pleasure experiences, rather than accumulating reasons or things to be happy about.

Stay connected to source

Find your own personal way to stay connected to your higher consciousness (the feeling you).

For many this is meditation, music, song, etc.

Why are we so attracted to parks?

water?

nature?

wildlife and animals?

We have awareness on some level that we are part of a much greater collected consciousness, something else, something higher than us.

Some people may be partially disconnected from it, but you can never fully disconnect from it.

Notice that the word emotion is e + motion.

Notice that the concepts are so connected even on a linguistic level.

Did you know that elephants are one of the very few creatures other than humans who cry tears of emotion?

And when was the last time you saw an elephant running?

They have adapted or have been given an ability to release emotions from tears in the same way humans do.

People are attracted to source because we recognize that’s where we want to be,

we want to have those feelings, we want to experience that energy, because the energy, just by being in its presence, makes us feel better about ourselves.

Live in the moment

We only have access to our full personal power in the present moment.

This is practicing the art; it’s a habit to be developed, a life-skill.

The extent, to which you are connecting, on some unconscious level,

either into the past or into the future,

is the extent to which you rob yourself of your present power.

You are not going to be experiencing what it is that you want; therefore you are moving your emotional point of attraction, into negative territory.

Being in the present moment is the only way you can make an emotional connection to what it is that you want.

Therefore begin the process of it becoming attracted to you in future present moments.

This type of emotional alignment cannot be achieved when your thoughts are in the future or past.

“But how much do I need to be in the present moment? I have all this stuff to do…..”

You must be in the present moment enough to have enough fully-loaded, pleasurable, positive full body feelings, about what you want to attract in your life, in order to begin the process of its automatic attraction to you.

Living with your thoughts at a future or past moment in time, is entirely redundant in the process of being free of stress, and attracting what you want into your life.

You can never be enough to

You can never be sorry enough to change this problem situation.

It is only when you love yourself that you have that love to radiate to others.

It is only when you are allowing the abundance to flow to you, that you then have the ability to gift it to others.

Giving your energy – in any form – to others, whether it is love, forgiveness, agreement, or any energy,

when your cup is not already brimming over, is the fastest route to the emotional poorhouse.

If you want to help others, you must first help yourself.

Others easily see through empty gestures, compliments, or favors; and, such gestures only hide you from your own emotional impoverishment/malnutrition.

They are not useful, and serve no purpose in enhancing your life or others’.

Be selfish enough to line up with your intentions

This is important because it is only in your thriving that you have anything to offer others.

If your own energy tank is not full, you have no business looking after the tanks of others.

It is important to limit your own responsibilities to prevent emotions like lack of self-worth etc. Remain present and in attendance to your own needs first and you will always give others your best, automatically.

You are not your accomplishments
Understand that you are not your accomplishments, what you do, what you don’t do, your beliefs, your ideas, your stuff or possessions,

those are nothing to do with who you really are,

they are the baggage you have picked up along the way,

they are nothing to do with the spiritual you who wants to feel good; and stay connected to Peace.

Lose your ego, and take this attitude of freedom with you in your everyday life.

The journey is the destination

Many times our internal dialogue says

“If only I had x, then I would be happy, or, “I’ll be happy when I’ve got…”

As you go into the world and experience the contrast of your likes .vs. your dislikes, through your everyday experiences, so a new want is born.

Then comes the striving (and usually struggle) in the journey towards its manifestation, which contains all the stresses and strains you wish to rid yourself of.

Understand this: you’ll never get it done.

Because the journey itself towards your wants shows you new elements of contrast, new possibilities, new likes and dislikes, etc that change and alter your path.

Thus your job here is not to get caught up in the end result but to ensure you enjoy the journey along the way,

regardless of your goal, and

ensure that your everyday journey contains all the same underlying experiences, emotions, and full-body feelings that you seek from your end goal, anyway.

The journey is the destination. So enjoy it.

Seek Professional Help When Needed

Sometimes, stress might be too much to handle alone, or it might be a symptom of an underlying issue such as anxiety or depression.

Don’t hesitate to seek help from a mental health professional who can provide you with personalized strategies and support.

Bringing it all together

So how do we overcome the various stress blocks to pull greater peace and abundance towards us?

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is one way to release the emotional blocks of shoulds, musts, ought-tos, anger, fear, resentment, and so on.

Once the biggest unconscious blocks have been resolved, your intentions, ambitions, passion will feel that much free-er to move towards you, automatically and effortlessly.

Circumstances and people appear in your life from nowhere and events begin aligning themselves, as the universe conspires with you, to realize your passion.

Remember, stress is an inevitable part of life, but how you manage it can make all the difference in maintaining your health and well-being.

Incorporating these practices into your daily routine can help you lead a more balanced and stress-free life.
