For your Inner Calm toolkit…
I hope you’ve had a good week.
Mine has been something of a creative whirl – I’ll be bringing you news of those efforts very soon! 🤩
In the meantime, I’d like to share with you one of my favourite coaching tips that has helped me stay calm and productive during a very busy week.
Essentially it’s a psychological trick for scheduling worry – which sounds like something you wouldn’t want to do.
And yet, this mighty little technique has helped me restore emotional calm and inner balance so many times that it’s become a tried-&-trusted relief strategy.
Even though I’ve had a lot to do this week, this tip has helped me to simply take one day at a time, which has been a true saving grace. 🙏🏻
It’s an idea I originally shared on my blog way back in the days when I was facing domestic overload rather than creative challenges.
So it clearly has staying power, being just as relevant and effective over a decade later, possibly because it is universal in application.
It’s as relevant for writing a book or producing a movie as it is for building a business or getting through a crazy week.
So I hope you’ll take a look to see if this tip can be one for your Inner Calm Toolkit…
And because I LOVE to give my little theories names and make them more memorable, I christened this technique The Scarlett O’Hara Moment, inspired by the words of one of my favourite literary characters. 💃🏻
I’d love to hear what you think!
Wishing you a relaxing and restorative weekend,
Danielle
