We all have our different ways of trying to combat stress. According to research, 15% of Brits have zoned in on the art of mindfulness and around 8 million of us meditate regularly. The global wellness industry continues to grow every year, reflecting our ongoing search for anxiety-busting techniques. So how about giving skychology, micro-injections and rut-busting a try in your quest to achieve a calmer, more controlled inner life?
Re-frame your rut
Has your life become too samey? Life coach Michelle Elman explains how to get yourself out of that mindset ASAP.
RENAME IT
Instead of calling this phase a rut, label it with a more positive or neutral word – perhaps a “period of transition” or “hibernation”? We know life is full of peaks and troughs, but there are plateaus too – periods when there isn’t much going on. They’re totally normal.SEE IT AS A PERIOD TO EMBED LESSONS
If we were constantly growing and striving, there would be no time to digest all the lessons we learn from the tough periods, or to reflect on our wins. The quiet times give us a chance to think.
RE-EVALUATE YOUR VALUES
When we feel stuck, it’s often because what we’re looking for in life now is different to what we used to want – so what used to make us feel fulfilled no longer does. Ask yourself what’s important to you at the moment. Do this regularly and you’ll start to notice when your values have changed – it might help explain some of your “ruts”.CHANGE ROUTINES
