Survival of the Fittest

Ever feel like everybody is grabbing for a piece of you? 

Somehow we just keep giving of ourselves  and  fear we are drowning in obligations. We are parent, career person, friend, child/sibling, friend, we run a home....the list of demands seems to be endless. Yes, we often read we must prioritize, but our health - physical, emotional & spiritual -  must get top seeded. If you want all of your assorted “selves” to be in harmony, you have to build what I call personal camaraderie. 

Unfortunately when the stresses upon us seem to be winning, alcohol, smoking & bingeing on junk food seem to dominate our reactions. We have to be wise & objective enough to see that this reactive behavior breeds more stress and less inner peace. 

Let’s talk about being devoted to appreciating ourselves - which will enable us to take control of our lives by being more proactive and less reactive. Always better to think before we do. Let’s have certain guidelines, habits & disciplines in place to steer us clear of stormy patches.
