Are you reacting or responding to the events in your life?

Are you reacting or responding to the events in your life?
Reacting to the goings-on in our lives is pretty typical. We can be angry or upset easily because of all the “idiots” out there. But what if after your reaction, you took a deep breath and responded in a way that serves the situation and your mindset??
Our reactions cue our body to create the adrenaline chemical, cortisol, to flood our body. It shuts down our listening and clouds clear thinking and creating successful outcomes. When our body is running on cortisol 24/7 because of our reactions and mindset, we begin to lose the ability to be well. Cortisol is toxic.
In tough situations that clearly cause a reaction that hypes your body to continuous reactions, breathe. Breathing is the most immediate and beneficial self-help action you can take. The statement “seriously dude, take a deep breath” is spectacular advice.
