Stress is knocking my hairs out and I’m doing my best to deal with it. One thing I do is to indulge on my favorite foods, of course in moderation, then I watch funny movies; laughter fights stress.

But the most important, and I agree with you, is being aware of it.

You’re dead on about really letting yourself feel your emotions. Acceptance of what is is a powerful thing.

Great post, Dayne! One of the major reasons why we feel stressed is we expect too much of ourselves or that we allow other people to expect too much from us. We are sometimes just too eager to be the perfect person. As a human, there is no way that a person can be absolutely perfect. Expecting ourselves to be perfect is a lesson in frustration that we can do without.

Therefore, letting go of perfection reduces our stress. When we try to do something perfectly, every little imperfection irritates us. We can always do a great job without everything having to be absolutely ideal.

Trying to be perfect wastes our time. We could be completing other tasks or doing something we really like to do.

And most importantly, our confidence and self-esteem rise with the realisation that we are good without being perfect. So we should strive to accept ourselves as the wonderful person that we are without expecting perfection.

Cheers~

I love the suggestion to evoke your senses. When I’m stressed, nothing helps more than a walk outside in the fresh air with a cup of Chai tea.
