Stress, Overwhelm & Acceptance

July 9, 2019 beingyou Leave a Comment

Learning to accept whatever is happening in your life can be very challenging and its usually where we find the most suffering. Today Katie and I have a conversation around stress & overwhelm and practicing acceptance. Byron Katie has a book called “Loving What Is”, and she says that suffering comes from resisting what is happening in our lives. This was a huge lesson for me (Sue) and this concept helped me understand that a lot of my suffering (stress & overwhelm) came from trying to control things that were out of my control, instead of focussing on what was in my control, which was how I felt about what was happening in any moment and making the choice to see it from a different perspective.

In this episode we talk about:

  • Resisting “What Is”.
  • Learning to accept any situation, can change the way we see it and ultimately feel about it.
  • Looking at what we can control instead of what we can’t.
  • Why acceptance is key to managing stress and overwhelm.
  • What does it mean to truly accept?
  • Creating awareness, and practicing it daily.
  • Seeing things from a different perspective.
  • How slowing down can help speed things up.
  • Where is the stress? Whose stress is it?
  • Slowing down to speed up.
  • Is stress and overwhelm a habit?
  • Forgiveness, self-compassion and letting go.
  • Acceptance is also a learning opportunity.
  • Why communicating with others is important.
  • We share our key takeaways.
