Rigors of everyday life can take a toll on anyone. The drowning feeling of being overwhelmed can lead to inefficiency and affect not just work but also on our personal lives. Whenever we feel like things are spinning out of control and it seems like we're chasing something that we're not going to catch, here are few things that could help us be calm and find our center in the midst of chaos.
Breathe. This is simplest thing anyone can do when one feels overwhelmed. All you have to is stop for a while, inhale, hold it for a couple of seconds, and exhale. Not only will it help you calm yourselves but it'll also help you get your focus back.
Whenever we're overwhelmed by life, negative thoughts can take over. If this happens, all we need to do is to mentally put a stop sign whenever we start to entertain them. This might take a lot of practice but this will definitely help us in dealing with the overwhelming feeling of being drowned by worry.
In dealing and stopping with negative thoughts, a couple of self-affirming mantras is also a big help. It doesn't hurt in telling ourselves that we can do it or we're prepared whenever we undergo something. This helps us in boosting our confidence in ourselves whenever we start on a new project.
Life is hard. But that doesn't mean we get swallowed by its strong current.
