STRESS MANAGEMENT TIPS

1. Go to bed on time.

2. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.

3. Start the day with a prayer.

4. Smile!

5. Get organised so everything has its place....and everything is in its

place. Simplify and unclutter your life.

6. Say NO to projects that won't fit into your time schedule…. or that will

compromise your peace of mind.

8. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time,

don't lump the hard things all together.

many.)

11. Take one day at a time.

what Baba would have you to do..... then let go of the anxiety. If you feel

you cannot do anything about a situation….. forget it.

purchases.

14 Have backups. An extra car key in your wallet.....an extra house key

buried in the garden...... extra stamps, etc. etc.

in the bud. Don't wait until it's time to go to bed to try and pray.

most.
