day 15- stress
| What are some ways you reduce stress and create happiness in your everyday life? Reducing stress in my everyday life is tricky because it's really unpredictable (which I guess is kind of a characteristic of stress, right?) I don't think there's anything I do on purpose to cope except drink and meditate (not necessarily in that order). I suppose you could say I'm kind of a passive bystander to my stress. It happens, I cope at the time in the way that's appropriate, then I'm left later on with the scraps of stress I didn't address upfront when it happened. I used to seriously self medicate with alcohol, then I started meditating and cut back on that pretty dramatically. I still drink, but I'm decent at being moderate. I find happiness the same way, it comes to me. If I try to create happiness I almost always end up sabotaging it so I just look out for it and appreciate it when it comes up. -TPB |

About This Author
Born in the mountains. Raised by nomads. Lived in 11 cities in 9 states. Wife. Mother. Prefer to spend my time writing fantasy, supernatural, maybe some sci fi if I can get away with it, horror, comedy for sketch, standup, monologue, short stories. Oh, and I really, really, really love to read. I perform improv and standup because someone smarter than me said it would help make my writing better. I hope you find my brain worlds entertaining.
