lisacaron 5,075 Posted August 2, 2013 Ah my friend I am all too familiar with family issues and STRESS. It can really take a toll on you and weight loss is not the only way it can get to you. Though it is much easier to say then to do, please for your own sake take care of yourself. Give yourself a break and show yourself some love. Even if you have to take a moment or two and lock yourself in the bathroom to take some deep calming breaths, it helps. Best wishes for you and your family. Stay strong, keep breathing and this too shall pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandista 7,466 Posted August 3, 2013 Thinking of you, and relating to S-T-R-E-S-S and hoping things are calming down for you -- the breathing, drinking Water and feeling it on the throat sometimes really helps me. There's a trick of taking a moment to really notice everything -- what's going on inside and out, the sounds, the thoughts that may be all over the place, the temperature, noise, jangled nerves -- all of it. And then equalizing it. Pretty soon I find myself noticing other things, like the sound of the breeze I was missing, my own breath, sometimes a kind of between-the-lines sweetness that is running there along with all the other stuff. The act of just taking a moment to inventory really helps me a lot. Good luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
