Just One Thing
Simple Practices from Dr. Rick Hanson
Leave the Red Zone
Lower the Pressure
The pressure activates motivational circuits but has inherent collateral damage. Pressure activates ancient motivational circuits that were very effective in keeping our ancestors alive but even at best, there is an inherent collateral damage.
Rest
Encourage your mind to come to rest at least occasionally. Tell the truth to yourself about how much time you actually – other than sleep.
Lighten Up
You can open to a sense of freedom and autonomy where you get to decide what you could stop doing and lighten up.
