How to Use Stress an an Opportunity • 161

We will learn: How to stop resisting our stress How to turn stress into an opportunity  And how to stop being bitter and remember why you’re celebrating Stress is inevitable… especially as we’re right smack in the middle of the holidays, still navigating a pandemic, unemployment for a lot of people… and we know that stress has a pretty huge negative impact on our health… so … are we all screwed? No, not if we’re willing to examine our stress a little and change our relationship with it. It is actually possible to never have another problem for the rest of your life.  This is because events are not problems; they’re just events. Your resistance to them is what causes the problem.  But then the question becomes how do I do that? How do I step into a new mindset? How do I use life to let go of all my impressions of how things should be so I can also let go of the stress they create? Well, you have to become very conscious, especially of that mental voice that starts resisting whenever you think you don’t like something. And that’s what we’re talking about today. Our guest is Dr. Dravon James. She is the founder of Everyday Peace and the author of Freedom is Your Birthright. Her whole goal is to inspire others to build the life of their dreams no matter what shows up in their lives- good, bad, or otherwise.
