Issue #014: This Is Why You Keep Slipping Back Into Stress (Fix It Fast)

You feel better for a few days… then the tension creeps back in. Sound familiar?

The problem isn’t that you’re doing it wrong — it’s that you haven’t created the right mental safety net. This week’s issue gives you 3 tools to reset faster, hold progress longer, and stop sliding back into overwhelm. 🧠🔁

🎧 Vitality Soundbite

  • Discover the simple rituals that high performers use to keep their calm — even when chaos hits.

🧠 Mind: Set a Reset Cue

Choose one calming phrase or gesture that signals your brain to slow down. Ex: “I’m safe. I can breathe.”

🌄 Mini Mind Habit: Say it anytime your body tenses up. This rewires your response over time.

💪 Body: Stress Signals = Check Engine Light

Pay attention to where stress shows up physically.

🚀 Try This: Place one hand on your chest, one on your belly. Breathe into your bottom hand for 1 full minute.

💫 Soul: Calm Is a Skill, Not a Mood

You can learn to be grounded, just like you learn to ride a bike.

🎨 Soulful Shift: Ask yourself: “What helps me come back to myself?” Make that a daily ritual.
