that is all we can handle. Any level or depth of
prioritizing will help you gain control. Prioritizing means
choice. You choose what is most important to you at any
given time. You always have the power to choose. Even when
events happen to you that are out of your control, you can
choose how you respond to them. In that moment you
prioritize your thoughts and feelings. You may say that you
can’t control your feelings, and this is true to a degree.
You may not be able to control your initial reaction, but
you can choose how you will think about a situation, which
will eventually lead to how you feel about it. As you begin
to feel as though you are gaining control, you can then
begin to prioritize for the long term. The more you think
about and decide what is most important to you, the more you
will operate from a place of conscious choice. As you do
this, you will have more feelings of control and peace.If you are trying to restore the balance between Omega-6 and Omega-3 essential fatty acids in your diet, you may want to eat a tablespoon or two of whole flax seeds each day.

I recommend eating whole flax seed rather than flax seed oil because you get the whole package: the protein, fiber, minerals and phytochemicals along with the omega-3's.100 grams of flax seed yields about: 35 grams Focus on doing one thing at a time. I know in this day and age of multi-tasking we think we can’t get enough done if we are not doing more than one thing at a time. But is this really true? Have you ever noticed that the things we do with only half our attention, we often have to do over? Generally, when we give our tasks the undivided attention they truly require, we can get more done more efficiently. Just try this for a day and see what you can get accomplished. What are you willing to begin today? Commit to at least one strategy, notice the effects, and you will want to incorporate all three. Applying these strategies during stressful times will help you gain a sense of control in your life. If you also begin to practice them in your daily life any time, you will begin to discover what it feels like to be at peace. Isn’t this what most of us are ultimately striving for anyway? I guess the key is to stop striving and breathe, prioritize, and focus. I guarantee that over time, the accumulated effects of these changes will dramatically change your quality of life and give you peace.
