Ø Mindfulness: Staying in the moment with full attention on what you are doing. You can use mindfulness to focus on your breathing, your walking, etc.

Ø Thought Stopping: A cognitive behavioral technique, that teaches you to recognize negative thoughts, tell yourself to STOP and substitute a more positive thought. Works surprisingly well once you can recognize your self- destructive thinking.

Lifestyle Changes

Ø Delegate More Responsibility Ø Increase Sleep time Ø Use time management techniques Ø Try to decrease your need for control Ø Use positive affirmations Ø Practice assertiveness Ø Stop multitasking Ø Focus on what you are doing Ø Decrease expectations of yourself Ø Pick your battles and use your anger well

Remember these won’t work if you don’t try them. Try one at a time, if something doesn’t work for you, try something else. Don’t give up persistence always pays off.
