Have you ever considered how heavy stress is or how it works?
Lets say that your burden is small, as light as a feather, it's not the weight that's important it's how long you try to hang on to it.
Hold a feather at arms lenght for a minute, no problem!
After an hour your arm may start to ache, a day and you could be in serious pain any longer and someone might have to call you an ambulance.
Same weight but over time the burden justs gets greater and greater.
It's the same with stress, if we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later,
they become so heavy we simply can't carry on.
As with the feather, if you put it down for a while the next time you pick it up if feels that mich ligher and easier to carry. The same is true with stress, you have to put it down for a while and rest before you pick it up again.
Before you go home tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow.
Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let them down for a moment if you can.drop them off at the gym, remove them with your work clothes or finds somthing to do that means you have to put then down for a while!
Sometimes life is too serious to be taken seriously accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.
