Sometimes, it&#8217;s not what we do, but rather it&#8217;s what is done to us. The most common things that cause stress are finances, relationships, work and children, and it&#8217;s extremely important to find the time to be still, even if it&#8217;s only for 10 minutes each day. It may not seem like a lot of time, but it does a lot of good. If you can <a title=\"Take Time Out for You \" href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2010\/06\/take-time-out-for-you.html\"><strong>take 10 minutes<\/strong><\/a> out of your busy day to just be still, you will live a happier life and you will feel the peace within yourself.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Psychic Tenley ext. 5602\" href=\"http:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/psychics\/Tenley-5602.aspx?utm_source=blog-articles&amp;utm_medium=blog-articles&amp;utm_campaign=cta-psychic-tenley-ext-5602\"><em><strong>Psychic Tenley ext. 5602 can help you live a stress-free life! Call her and find out how.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Many of us are not in tune with being still. We must find that place within us and around us that enables us to clear everything out except nature. I prefer being outdoors, in the middle of trees, birds, and even insects. Nature, almost like an orchestra, holds it&#8217;s own rhythm. There may be some background thunder in the distance, birds singing, leaves rustling from a gentle wind, and many other things that in and of itself\u00a0are not quiet, yet they do us so much good. I find nature calming and relaxing, so spending time in it is my way of being still. However, if that&#8217;s not possible for you, you can find other ways to <a title=\"5 Ways to Get Peace of Mind \" href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2013\/04\/peace-of-mind.html?lo=1\"><strong>get your 10 minutes in<\/strong><\/a>. Find a place at home or at work and go there daily to just be still. At home, it can be a shower or a backyard.\u00a0At work it could be an empty office or conference room.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Listen to Your Inner Voice\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When we are constantly surrounded by the human voice (coworkers, significant others, children, the television, etc.) we find it hard to hear our own inner voice. That&#8217;s because we are paying attention to everything else. As an empath, I take on all the energy of other people and things around me. So in the beginning, it was very difficult to focus on what was really important to me. I was always anxious. I had to take action, so I learned to control my abilities and take my 10 minutes of quiet time to be still.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Stressed-Out Mom\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I get a lot of calls from people who are stressed. One call in particular has stayed with me during my time with California Psychics. A woman called and told me that she was stressed because <a title=\"Soul Retreat\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2014\/02\/soul-retreat.html\"><strong>she was always home with her family<\/strong><\/a>. She couldn&#8217;t even use the bathroom alone! I told her that when she needed a break she should go to the bathroom and turn the water on so it seemed like she was busy in there. She asked, &#8220;Did you not hear what I just said?&#8221; I did hear her, even with her dogs barking and her children yelling in the background.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;Me Time&#8221; Isn&#8217;t the End of the World\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When she hung up, she went to the bathroom and did just what I told her. She called me back the next day to let me know that she did exactly what I told her and it was incredibly freeing. Her kids were still screaming outside the bathroom door and the dog was still barking, but she couldn&#8217;t hear them as much with the water running. She had stolen 10 minutes for herself. She said, &#8220;I had an awakening in there.&#8221; She realized she could take 10 minutes for herself and her kids wouldn&#8217;t be damaged as a result of her &#8220;me time.&#8221; It wasn&#8217;t the end of the world! 10 minutes felt so good that she started taking 15 minutes each day for herself, no matter what, and she said it makes a huge impact on her whole day. She has to get out of bed before the rest of her family wakes up in the morning, but it&#8217;s totally worth it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Change Your Life\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stress is contagious, just like kindness. Stress can cause illness or just plain unhappiness. If you take just a few minutes a day for some quiet time, I know you will notice a change in your attitude, your family&#8217;s attitude and your overall peace.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m wishing you a stress-free life.
