When Daily Stress Gets in the Way of Life

Another of Dr. Chansky’s invaluable tips is to “let go of the rope.” When feeling pressured to figure out how to fix things now, “walk away for a few minutes, but promise to come back.” As with a computer that suddenly misbehaves, Dr. Chansky suggests that you “unplug and refresh,” perhaps by “taking a breathing break,” inhaling and exhaling calmly and intentionally.

“Movement shifts the moment.”

When you have a clear head and are feeling less overwhelmed, you’ll be better able to figure out the next step.
