DARE to Challenge Your Mind and Body
Create better balance in your physical health. Daily
exercise can help you physically and mentally, boosting your mood and reducing
stress and anxiety. You can rejuvenate yourself rapidly and boost your energy and
stamina.
Practice awareness. Know your triggers. Have you noticed how
much less effective you are when you come from a place of ego – of resentment
or fear – versus when you feel grounded and centered?
Have the courage to say “no.” No one can really do all and
be all, and that is why setting boundaries is key. Learning to say no is hard;
many of us feel obligated to say yes when someone asks for our time or energy.
However, if you are already stressed or overworked, saying yes to loved ones or
coworkers can lead to burnout, anxiety, and irritability.
Assess your values. Find ways to show up that are consistent
with your values. In other words, find ways to stay true to who you are.
