Avoid Unnecessary Stress
First up, avoid! This involves recognizing and staying away from stressors. Think of it like dodging a rogue auto on a crowded Mumbai street – spot it and steer clear! This could mean saying no to extra commitments or limiting exposure to news that adds to your worries. Remember, prevention is key.
Alter What You Can
Next, alter! This is about making changes to the situations you *can* control. Perhaps it's adjusting your work habits or discussing concerns with loved ones. Imagine trying a new chai recipe – tweak the ingredients until it tastes perfect! Make small, manageable changes for better results, ensuring a balanced life.
Adapt Your Thinking
Now, adapt! This involves changing your perception of stressful situations. Think of it like embracing the monsoon – you can't stop the rain, but you can use an umbrella! Reframe your thoughts and learn to see challenges as opportunities for growth. This helps in mental resilience.
Accept The Uncontrollable
Finally, accept! There are things beyond your control. Like the traffic on Delhi roads, or the unpredictability of the weather, embrace these realities. Learn to let go of what you can't change. Remember, even Lord Shiva has a cool head and a serene demeanor!
