Resilience Rule of Two Strategies for Managing Stress and Making Changes

Figure out your most goal using the motivating, objective, measurable, small, and timely (MOST) acronym. Set boundaries with your phone and other devices to reduce stress. Tap into your mind-body connection to lower stress through deep breathing exercises and daily movement. Avoid multitasking and take regular breaks at work to reduce stress. Practice daily gratitude journaling to rewire your brain to be less stressed. Start with just two changes at a time, known as the resilience rule of two, to increase the likelihood of success in making changes and developing daily habits before adding more changes.
