The Myth of "Too Much to Do"

The Myth of "Too Much to Do"

That feeling of having way too much to do is a major source of stress.It can leave you feeling paralyzed before the day even begins.

Rebbe Nachman taught that true wisdom is simplicity. It's about doing the next right thing, not everything at once. Stress Management research agrees, suggesting that we prioritize our to-do lists into "must-dos," "want-to-dos," and "can-wait."

But what if we started even simpler?

Today’s Emuna CPR Challenge: When you feel overwhelmed, your only "must-do" is to take one minute for the "Breathe" exercise.

1. Stand or sit up straight.

2. Inhale slowly to a count of five as you open up your chest.

3. Hold for a count of three.

4. Exhale slowly to a count of five.

You just gave your body and brain the oxygen they need to function well, taking you from worrying about the future to focusing on the present.You have the power to reclaim your peace, one breath at a time.
