We think of stress as this thing we carry. But what IS it?

Stress is an emotion; a feeling. It probably gives you some physical sensations in your body (headaches, eyelid twitches, stomach upset).

And we try and treat stress by getting organized (journals, planners and apps, oh my!), doing yoga, promising that we’ll meditate (“I’ll just download this app and start meditating every day and then I’ll feel better!”).

But the stress we FEEL, comes from the thoughts that we have.

Today I’m going to show you exactly why this is true, and what to do in order to change your experience. Listen up!
