SummaryIn this part of the episode, we explore various strategies for finding peace and calm in our lives. We begin by discussing the importance of managing stress and our response to it, focusing on strategies such as breathing techniques. We share a client's visualization of "smelling the daisies and blowing out the candles" as a helpful tool for relaxation.
Mindfulness and meditation are highlighted as key practices in staying present and accepting our thoughts without judgment. We discuss the benefits of mindfulness, such as observing thoughts without getting caught up in them and returning focus to the breath.
Positive affirmations are mentioned as a way to counteract negative thinking and promote positive thoughts in our daily lives. We acknowledge that while some may find this approach too fluffy, actively promoting positivity can offset the negativity we encounter.
Physical exercise is emphasized as a significant means of releasing tension and stress. Even a short walk can have a profound impact on our well-being. We encourage listeners to prioritize physical activity as a way to relax.
Moving forward, we delve into grounding techniques that involve focusing on physical sensations. By redirecting our attention to the texture of objects or our breath, grounding brings us out of our minds and connects us with our bodies.
