When you feel stressed, it is often because there is so much competing for your time and attention. Feeling out of control is one of the greatest threats of all to the human brain. Here’s a quick activity to take back control.  Make a list of everything that's causing you stress. Go through that list and cross off everything for which you have no control. Of the things that are in your control, pick one and ask yourself the following questions:  Is this a problem that I can solve?
Is there an action that I can take?
Is it an emotion I can just let myself feel?
Is it a thought I can reframe?  So much of our stress comes from worrying about things beyond our control. It's normal. Our brain doesn't like uncertainty, so it's natural for us to do that, but we can take back control. We can use our mind to change our brain.  One easy way to do that is to focus on something very specific that's in your control.  ----------------  Subscribe to the Anne Grady Group for more resilience-building tools and strategies! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU8s....  ----------------  Sign up for Anne's weekly Resilience Reset email list!

You forgot to set your alarm, spilled coffee on your brand-new shirt, and totally forgot that your first call of the day was over video. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Let’s face it, we all have mornings, days, or even months like this (trust me, I know), but when we do, it’s easy to start looking for all of the cruddy things, and when we look for them, we find them in spades. Here are a few simple ways to turn around a really, really bad day.

Today! 1) found out from mail that I was lied to about my grandchild's middle name. 2) highway was shut down 3) took backroads- sloooowly. 4) rescued a turtle about to get hit ( positive) 5) large dog in the road ( someone else rescues him thankfully) 6) got to my class 40 min late- I'm the professor. Some days be like this!

Smile...even if you don’t feel like it.

Science has shown that the mere act of smiling can lift your mood, lower stress, boost your immune system, and even prolong your life. A smile generates the same brain activity as eating 2,000 chocolate bars! 🍫 #MindfulMonday

Add resilience to your schedule. ⏰

You can’t be resilient when you have nothing to give, so stress-free activities should be part of your weekly routine. What do you wish you had more time for? What “just for fun” activity can you put on your calendar? Make sure you’re not just prioritizing schedules but actively scheduling your priorities. #FillYourCup

In a world where we are driven by perfection, where flawless Instagram feeds dominate our lives, the idea of "good enough" often gets overshadowed. We're bombarded with messages that urge us to chase after an ideal that is always just out of reach, perpetuating a cycle of dissatisfaction and self-doubt.

Because of my back surgery I cannot lift more than 5 pounds or bend over to pick things up. That means my house isn’t as neat as I’d like it, laundry is piling up, and there are lots of things I want to do that just aren’t getting done.

At first, I was frustrated with the “undone” tasks. But I have been reminded that sometimes “enough” is enough.

Whether it's in our careers, relationships, or hobbies, the idea of "good enough" can be liberating. Embracing the idea that "enough is good enough" is a radical act of self-compassion. It's about finding fulfillment in the journey rather than fixating on an unattainable destination.

This week, I encourage you to strive for just enough.

Enough is enough, Anne! We hope you get the time you need to relax and recover. ❤️

One of my favorite mantras is “ I have enough, it is enough, I am enough, enough is enough”. Works in all seasons of life to affirm the season you are in. Please borrow❤️

healing is an important part of life. You are healing. That is what is getting done.

Keeping a gratitude journal or just thinking of 3 good things that happen each day forces you to scan for the positives.

This doesn’t mean you wear rose-colored glasses and pretend like the negatives aren’t out there, but you can wear gratitude glasses and find the good within it. #MindfulMonday

This is so true. Even if you acknowledge 3 positive gratitudes in a daily morning meditation or prayer, that will change the trajectory of your mind and thought process for the day.
