Summary
With everything that's happening in the world right now, it can be very difficult to focus on the things that we used to see as 'important' but may now may seem 'less important'.
The thing is, when you put all your focus on issues that are outside of your control, your overall influence on those issues ends up shrinking, as you become less focused on the things that also actually matter to you.
I want to say, it's okay to not be okay sometimes and worry about things beyond our control because we are human with emotions, but we all know that when anxiety and stress they take over and influence our ability to cope, work, eat healthy then we need to have a strategy to deal with it.
So in this episode, I'll be discussing a great way to help you cope with whats happening in the world and how to not let outside factors (such as stress, war, injustice) derail your progress, by explaining the 3 key things that have helped me deal with stressful times and still maintain a high level of consistency.

| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to the Lean of Plants podcast. My name is Chelsea and if you are struggling to lose weight on a plant-based diet, then this podcast is for you. While there are thousands of books, podcasts and resources about the benefits of a plant-based diet, the reality is that being vegan does not |
| 0:22.0 | guarantee losing weight. If you are feeling frustrated and confused about where to start, |
| 0:28.7 | or you know exactly what you should be doing, but you just can't seem to rustle up enough |
| 0:34.1 | willpower to do it, then keep listening. In this podcast, you'll learn the truth about plant-based weight loss, but just as importantly, |
| 0:42.1 | how to use proven methods of behavioural change to turn what you know into lifelong habits that |
| 0:48.3 | lead to getting and staying lean. |
| 0:51.3 | Can't wait to get started. |
| 0:53.1 | Let's do this. |
| 1:04.1 | Music lean. Can't wait to get started. Let's do this. Hello, hello, welcome back to the Lean of Plants podcast or if it's your first time, welcome. |
| 1:10.0 | I always say at the start of the episodes that I'm |
| 1:13.2 | excited to get talking to you. Today I'm honestly not super excited and it kind of comes in with |
| 1:20.1 | the topic that we're going to be talking about and that is how I cope in survival mode |
| 1:26.7 | and really how to not let stress derail your progress. |
| 1:31.4 | And so the reason that I'm not super, super excited is because I've just been dealing with a lot |
| 1:37.4 | of stress recently. I feel like I've been just a bit in survival mode. |
| 1:43.3 | And I wanted to share with you how I keep going in that, how I avoid weight gain, |
| 1:50.4 | how I still keep my habits relatively in check enough for me to maintain, how I take a bit |
| 1:57.8 | of a pause sometimes, but I don't kind of pendulum swing back to where I was |
| 2:02.8 | because I think it's so important to not give up every time that you're in crisis mode or you're |
| 2:10.3 | just trying to survive what's going on and that your emotions are running rampage. |
| 2:13.6 | Because if you don't know how to actually get through that in a way that is in line with |
| 2:22.9 | your priorities and your values, not just influenced by your emotions in that moment, then you're |
