Stress is an INVITATION

Very few people recognize that harmful stress is an INVITATION. It's always inviting you into something.

Stress is really not an enemy, or something that you should "eliminate" or "wipe out." In fact, that usually makes it worse, not better. And you miss what it's inviting you into.

Just consider what your stress could be inviting you to do...

to SLOW DOWN...
to WORK SMARTER...
to LET GO...
to CLARIFY...
to SIMPLIFY...
to TAKE BETTER CARE OF YOURSELF...
to MOVE ON...
to NOTICE...

There are so many possible messages. And the way to know if you got the message? The harmful stress leaves your body and mind!

How would your life change if you viewed stress as an invitation, instead of a problem that you have to solve?
