It's May-hem Time
Ever notice how many more demands there seem to be on your time in the month of May and on into the summer?
It can feel like Mayhem, trying to juggle everything that is going on as well as added outdoor chores, children being home from school, vacations, special events and different schedules.
I know I have been picking up on it. And even if you don't have a lot going on you may be picking up the overwhelm from those around you.
If you are feeling added stress, be aware of the toll it may be taking on you, your body, and your relationships.
Of course, we all have choices that we can make that can ease the stress, but all too often we become victims of our own choosing by taking on more than we really care to. We become victims of not wanting to be judged by others.
And for parents, what do you want to teach your kids about making choices? Or maybe even better, what can you learn about making choices from your kids? Ever notice that kids, especially young ones, don’t worry about what other people will think, and will choose anyway? This changes as they grow older and receive the influence of adults.
You can take on the attitude of "This too shall pass." And again, I ask you what price do you pay each time that happens.
The reason for this message today, is to give you permission to stop, ask some questions about what you are choosing and why.
