Lately, the world outside has been nothing but grey skies and relentless rain. It’s the perfect metaphor for those days when your mind feels just as heavy.
When we’re caught in a mental storm (stress, anxiety, or just a bad mood) our first instinct is often to try and "fix" the weather.
We want to force the clouds to part or argue with the wind.
But mental fitness is realizing that you can’t control the elements. You can only control how you react or respond to whatever is happening...
You don’t have to stop the rain to keep from getting soaked.
Mental strength is the ability to drop an anchor while the rain settles down. It’s about shifting your focus from the chaos outside to the steady breath inside.
The storm is temporary; your ability to remain grounded is what lasts.
The rain will eventually stop. Until then, stay calm and keep your footing.
And if you need some help with steadying yourself in windy and rainy weather, give me a shout! I always have a complimentary MindMOT waiting for you...
