~First, positive self-talk. The narrative in your head can aggravate or even initiate stress. Instead, replace thoughts of, “I can’t do this” or, “This always happens to me” with, “I’ll try my best” and, “Things will work out.”
~Second, emergency stress-stoppers. Sometimes you need a quick save! To help, break a negative pattern or avoid making a small situation worse by counting to 10 before you speak, walking away from the negativity, going out for fresh air, getting into the slow lane while driving, or tackling one little piece of an overwhelming project. If being late stresses you out, set your watch 10 minutes ahead—and don’t look at your phone!
~Third, enjoyable activities. Although it’s great if you love doing something physical, such as taking a bike ride or going on a hike or even getting your hair done, remember, the joy might also be found in reading a book, cooking, painting, hanging out with friends, or listening to music.
~Daily relaxation. Practice deep breathing and positive visualization, and engage in meditation or yoga.

In the end, be safe these next 2 months and take care of you!!!!
