This seems to be very prevalent. Actually I was just speaking with a client today and she was expressing her sense of anxiety and how overwhelmed she feels with the situations in her life. My passion is supporting and providing women like you with
training and resources for women's empowerment that will enable you to discover
your authentic self, get unstuck, finally be free from emotional baggage, limiting beliefs that will result in unshakable confidence to step out in faith and live life on their terms. A bold, beautiful and authentically brilliant life!
I was reading this definition in the dictionary.
1 a : painful or apprehensive uneasiness of mind usually over an impending or anticipated ill b : fearful concern or interest c : a cause of anxiety
2 : an abnormal and overwhelming sense of apprehension and fear often marked by physiological signs (as sweating, tension, and increased pulse), by doubt concerning the reality and nature of the threat, and by self-doubt about one's capacity to cope with it. Miriamwebster.com
Do you know how you can combat anxiety?
Let’s face it we have many opportunities to experience feelings of anxiety.
Have you ever been in a situation that brought on sweats, rapid heartbeat and shortness of breath? You probably weren’t having a heart attack but an anxiety attack. If you suffer from anxiety disorders, learning to manage it is the first step to overcoming it.
Anxiety is characterized as extreme reactions to fearful situations. When someone follows you into a dark alley, those anxious feelings of a racing heartbeat and sweaty palms gives way to heightened senses and a rush of adrenalin that can save your life. This is the fight or flight syndrome.
In the case of frequent anxiety, the fearful feelings are dread of a particular situation and not the situation itself. Getting caught in traffic can cause an anxiety attack over what might happen when you get to work late. Starting a new job can bring on anxiety attacks. You don’t know anyone and fear of that unknown can send you into a panic.
Everyone experiences panic or anxiety in small ways. Like the fight or flight example, it can save your life. In new situations, we get panicky but when the outcome we fear fails to materialize, the anxiety stops. For someone with chronic anxiety, this is not the case.
Every situation that brings anxiety is not life-threatening. More than likely it is an extremely stressful situation that has brought on the anxiety as a way of dealing with it. Unchecked anxiety of this type can lead to depression.
If you suffer from anxiety attacks on occasion or a more frequent anxiety disorder, there are steps you can take to keep your anxiety under control. I will list
6 practical tips for you below.
1. Meditate. Meditation is more than chanting mantras. Yoga is an exercise that involves quieting the mind and controlling your breathing. Simple mediation such as taking 5 minutes to clear your mind everyday can work wonders in the fight against anxiety, however, another way to meditate is on the word of God. I'll give you
a few great verses to meditate on below.
Philipins 4:6
Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition ([b]definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.
7 And God's peace [shall be yours, that [c]tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall [d]garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8 For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them].
2. See a professional. This is always a good first step. Self-diagnosis of any type of physical or mental condition is unwise and can be dangerous. A professional psychologist can help you understand your anxiety and prescribe medication or other effective techniques.
3. Get a good night’s sleep. During the sleep cycle, your body repairs itself. You feel more rested after several hours of restorative sleep, reaching the REM stage. Most people need eight hours a night which varies within an hour or two each way.
4. Exercise on a consistent basis. Exercise helps you to use oxygen more efficiently. It helps to get more oxygen to the brain. It also increases focus which may help you see solutions to problems rather than simply worrying about them.
5. Manage the worry. When you feel your pulse start to quicken, count backwards from ten. As you count, focus on the situation. What has actually happened? Resist the urge to read anything more into the situation.
6. Find some relaxing activities. Stress can rob you of your energy. On a regular basis, do something you like such as gardening, painting, reading or listening to music. Stress has been attributed to 90% of all chronic diseases and we know
that some of these can lead to death. So in essence Anxiety, stress can be
a silent killer. Again not all levels, however, if you let it get out of
control it can be a contributing factor.
Anxiety can come into your life at any time. It’s normal. When the anxiety becomes frequent you could be at risk for more serious conditions. If you feel your anxiety is starting to take over your life or increasingly causing you problems, seek professional help immediately. There is no need to suffer this terrible condition in silence.

Women's Empowerment: Got stress? Great tips for stressed-less living and maximum empowerment
Did you know that stress can be attributed to 90% of all chronic diseases?
Stress is also known as one of the silent killers. Many women are in denial
and once they take the stress index that I offer in my business they are
surprised at the level of stress in their lives.
You must become clear on the matter of stress and become aware of what
triggers stress in your life if you want realized women's empowerment.
Have you ever been stressed even when you're well relaxed and bored?
You're not alone, I have also experienced this.
Now let's face it stress is unavoidable in life, it is important to find
ways to decrease and prevent stressful incidents and decrease negative
reactions to stress.
Here are some of the things to keep in mind and that can be done by
just remembering it, since life is basically a routine to follow like
brushing your teeth or eating breakfast. You can do a few of them in a
longer span of time, but as they say-- every minute counts.
Your thought life matters
This is an area that demands even more attention than what I'm giving here. Our thoughts are
Emotions such as fear, insecurity, anxiety, rage guilt trigger the body's
stress, just as an actual threat does. You may even experience a sense of worthlessness or powerlessness. This is why it's very important to learn
skills that will help you deal with your negative thoughts.
Here are a few tips:
Change your communication style. Doing this helps you communicate
in a way that makes your views known without making others feel
put down,hostile or intimidated. This reduces the stress that comes
from poor communication.
Another thing you can use it what is called "thought stopping." This
helps you stop a negative thought to help eliminate stress.
Step back and reassess the situation many times we can exaggerate
situations at first glance which only adds to our stress.
Leveraging your time
Learning skills to leverage your time can allow you more time with your
family and friends and possibly increase your performance and productivity.
This will help reduce your stress.
Here are a few tips to do this
Keep a record of how you spend your time, including work, church activities,
family and leisure time.
Deal with procrastination by breaking large projects into smaller ones,
and setting short-term deadlines.
Save time by focusing and concentrating, delegating and scheduling time
for your self.
Lifestyle
Some behaviors and lifestyle choices affect your stress level. They may
not cause stress directly, but they can interfere with the ways your
body seeks relief from stress. Try to:
Discover and live on purpose
Have a mindset of Total Wellness. This is critical fro sustained
empowerment and success.
Get enough sleep. Your body recovers from the stresses of the day
while you are sleeping.
Embrace a moderate exercise routine throughout the week
Balance personal, work and family needs and obligations.
Being equipped with skills to live a stressed-less life will not only
allow you to reap the rewards of business success but will also
extend your life so that you can enjoy your family, your business
success and giving thanks to Father God for the bountiful blessings
in your life.
Here's to your stressed-less, big, bold, beautiful and delicious life!

Savvy woman and woman entrepreneur empowerment: One simple thing to help you overcome overwhelm
When is the last time you took a close look at your daily routines?
Is there a reason for why you do things the way you do? Or do you
simply continue to operate on auto pilot?
Our daily routines can be a good thing when part of
an effective system, however, it can become a negative when
we get stuck in a rut. Doing things just because.
Try this one simple thing to combat overwhelm. Change your
routines. If you get up everyday at 6:00 am and find that you just
don't have enough time in the day to accomplish what it is you
desire, get up an hour or even half an hour earlier. Not only will
this give you at least 2 1/2 hours more per week,it will also change the
mundane routine and will also take you out of auto pilot.
What else have you done for the last 5 - 10 years without any
apparent reason for why you do it? Take inventory and find new
effective ways to enhance your productivity.
Did you know that stress contributes to over 90% of chronic diseases?
Overwhelm can definitely be factored in when talking about stress,
another reason to learn life skills and systems to combat overwhelm.

Be true to yourself
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. ~Dr. Seuss
As you make the shift to your best empowered life there will be nay-sayers.
Those that feel you're going just a little too far. Those that feel you are
not connected to reality because you have such an optimistic outlook.
You are embracing a lifestyle of Faith, purpose, passion and empowerment.
Your mere existence may rub some the wrong way because they're only comfortable
following the dictates of society or their surroundings.
What I've often told my children as we were raising them and remind them of
now that they're young adults is to "be true to yourself." There is power
in being authentic and sticking with what you believe regardless.
You can often see this exhibited with one's Faith.
Besides if you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything.
Only you can be the best you that there ever was. ~ Robin Tramble

I want it all... Should I feel guilty?
In my interactions with women this one question has always
been brought into the conversation. Some individuals want
to shake a finger at the woman asking this question, feeling
that it is selfish and #2 we can't possibly have it all.
Here are my thoughts.
This can be a hard question to answer if you fail to address the
following:
What is having it all? How do you define having it all?
This is a little like the assessment I use with clients\
"Defining success." If you don't define success for yourself,
others will tell you what it is or not.
What is your vision for life?
When you're not sure of your vision you can't possibly
navigate effectively.
So.... if there would be anything to feel guilty about
it would be not properly defining what having it all means
to you. Yes, I said you, not your best friend, spouse, parent
or anyone. And then my friend you chart your course without guilt.
Another key area is to make sure your life is set-up for success
with balance. I use an assessment to facilitate this, which is
what all of the participants of The Dream Launch Program benefited from.
I invite you to get connected with your best empowered life today!

Stress, women and chronic disease
Did you know that stress can be attributed to 90% of all chronic diseases?
This thing is serious!
Many times as women we are in denial and feel that we have
a grip on stress and are managing well, however, without becoming
aware of stressors in your life you are basically yielding yourself to
tremendous damage to your health and well being.
I use assessments to help individuals discover their subsceptibility
to stress. A few of the questions that I ask would include the following.
Do you experience unidentified pain in your shoulders, neck or back?
Have you experienced loss in the last year (i.e. loss of a loved one, job etc.)?
Do you find it easy to take time for yourself at least once or twice per week?
This is your life and you have a choice to make to either take a p
roactive approach to your personal development, health and wellness
plan or become a victim and shorten the time you have here on earth to
benefit from the fruits of your labor.
