Summary

Apparently there is a perception that I don’t have a ton of stress in my life. And to be honest, that is ridiculous! I experience stress almost every day. Although I have a handful of practices I prioritize that have helped lessen the impact stress has on me. When practiced, it gives me the opportunity to release built-up stress, and prevent more from building up within me. In this episode, I share my best tips for managing and reducing stress in your life. I don’t believe it’s possible to completely eliminate stress, but I believe by incorporating specific practices and activities into your daily life, it’s possible to lessen the control it has over your health and happiness.

0:00.0	Welcome, I'm Mac the Line Podcast. My name is Aaron Alexander, and typically this program is a place that we bring together the world's leading thought leaders on all things health and wellness to help you all optimize your mind body and movement and
0:13.6	then occasionally we do these solo episodes which is what today is and it is
0:18.9	based off of the questions that I get on Instagram and social media in general, but particularly
0:25.6	Instagram it's at a line podcast if you want to reach out. What this is all
0:30.6	about today is stress and And particularly, I get asked how I deal with stress.
0:36.6	I think perhaps there could be the perception

1:06.6	telling the truth. So if you are if you have any seeds of lies or many forms of deviance happening in your world with any
1:20.6	individual, with yourself perhaps as well.
1:24.0	Perhaps as well.
1:25.4	Each of those lies contain a certain level of energy.
1:31.4	It's almost like they're like little living breathing entities of sorts and

1:50.6	that you're being honest with any relationship that you have in your world,
1:54.0	people in your business, your wife or your husband, obviously, your kids, and yourself
2:01.0	and see if there's any little shadows of deception happening in your world and if they are they will
2:08.1	suck your psychological
2:10.4	bandwidth, emotional bandwidth as well. It's all the same thing, and a really wise thing would be to nip those things in the blood.
2:17.0	Tell the truth, next thing that I would recommend is I found living below my means to be helpful.
