Why do we stress over small things?

  • Summary


  • In this episode we discuss why it is that sometimes we get stressed over things that feel quite small, and we talk about what else might be going on – how much capacity we have for one more irritation.


    We discuss strategies to reframe the situations over which we have no control and how we might grow our bucket of coping so that things do not overwhelm us. The practice is to see small moments of irritation (being stuck in a queue, noise over which we have no control, etc) as opportunities for practice!

    The ‘small wins’ can help us to build resilience and be able to access our coping techniques with the bigger things in our lives.
