How to live a more stress free life?
When you find out your child or yourself has an illness, especially one like epilepsy it is full of stress, test, Dr's, diet change, activity change, medication and lets not forget the seizures as well as many more things that cause stress.
So how do you live a more stress free life?
One way we did that was we moved out of a stressful environment, but that was not the only thing we did, we helped Matt through eating healthier food, exercising, sitting in the sun when he can, taking sometime way in his room, being in nature is a good one as well.
There are many ways to live a more stress free life and those are just a few. Taking time to self is a good way do some gardening or planting and watch things grow, take up a hobby for Matt it is painting, writing, reading and playing games.
Sometimes it means letting go of some people or finding a better support system, finding new dr's who are willing to help you out the way you need them to or to give you better information, getting into a group with like minded people who can give you ideas and help you with some information as you help them with what you know.
In the end it starts with you, so make sure you are filling your cup up first take care of you first regenerate, for when you are full you can help take care of others.
In my book Life with Matt I speak many times about about how I found better ways to live a stress free life and how we help Matt stay stress free as best we can. Check it out here
