Marc Haine and a guest discuss stress management and embracing change using surfing metaphors. They argue that change and stress are normal, and that you can learn to ride them like waves instead of fighting them.
There's no magic eraser for stress and mindfulness is included in that. But there are things you can do to dramatically increase your ability to manage that stress, to ride the waves of life. Can't stop the waves but you can learn how to surf.
As you were saying that, the one thing that popped into my head was all the people who say, I can't wait to get back to normal. I hate to break it to you folks but normal is a setting on a dryer.
And normal in life is change and stress.
There you go.
