Stressless

Stressless

Less stress

Brain retains less

Nerves attest

Gut protests

How did I get in such a mess?

 

Retrain the brain.

Stress positive things.

Smile, wave, or greet

Neighbors in the hall

Till it becomes natural.

 

Restrain the brain,

From dwelling on negative things.

Act as if the negatives don’t exist.

Don’t befriend people with negative views.

Don’t read negative news.

 

Guilt-ridden verbal attacks

Holds achieving nirvana back.

Accept limitations.

Make the most of a situation.

Focus on fun, enjoyment, note appreciation.

 

Make time spent together a pleasure.

Moments to treasure.

Live the moment.

Be a positive Pollyanna.

Not a negative Nora.

 

Breathe deeply.

Deeply breathe. 

Breathe in – Good vibes – rational.

Breathe out – Bad vibes – irrational.

Resilient, strong, tough, hardy, flexible

Relax, lessen standards, don’t expect perfection.

 

Breathe deeply.

Deeply breathe.

Less stress. Success.
