Top 7 Calming & Stress-Relieving Hobbies To Help Combat Anxiety (Unique Method)!
Top 7 Calming & Stress-Relieving Hobbies To Help Combat Anxiety
Have you ever lived with something so long that you begin to think it’s normal?
Then you get a clue and you’re like wait I’m not meant to live like this!
I had that realization this week about anxiety.
Although I’ve overcome depression completely and given anxiety more than a few punches, I still am not completely free and I’m guessing you’re not either.
I guess I thought hey as long as my anxiety isn’t paralyzing like it was before then it’s ok to have some anxiety.
But why though?
The goal should be to beat anxiety in the face and win the fight, not settle for being less anxious.
There’s a reason why Jesus said don’t worry over and over again.
He doesn’t want us to use precious brain cells and time worrying when we could be praying to the Father and getting real results.
So in today’s post, I’m going to talk about some stress-reducing hobbies and tips to start beating stress for good.
These are some of the ways that I’ve used to help me at least get a strong grip on anxiety.
But first I’m going to tell you HOW to use these tips because that’s equally as important.

36 Encouraging Journal Prompts For Loneliness & 5 Practical Ways To Overcome It!
36 Encouraging Journal Prompts For Loneliness & 5 Practical Ways To Overcome It!
I was inspired to write this post about journal prompts for loneliness.
Why?
Because I saw a heartbreaking video yesterday.
It was of an English woman who would go to the grocery store just so she could talk to the cashier.
She said that If she didn’t do that she said she could literally go months without talking to another person. What’s even sadder is that she’s not alone.
Loneliness is at an epidemic level. In the UK, an estimated 9 million people are as lonely as this woman.

25 Powerful Examples Of Emotional Wellness Goals All Woman Should Have!
25 Powerful Emotional Wellness Goals
Does it sometimes feel like the world has gone stark raving mad and they are trying to drive you to crazy town with them?
Sometimes it’s people trying to pull you into their drama at work (“Girl, did you hear what Susie Q said to me?”)…
Or your husband saying stuff (“Why aren’t my pants ironed yet”)…
Or your kids tripping at school (“Mrs.So&So, This is the principal at Central High School. We need you to come down here right away”).
Or it’s the news or social media (News Headline: “The Worst Thing That Has Ever Happened In The Existence Of The World Has Happened Just This Morning“).
Of course, I’m being a little tongue in cheek but there does seem to always be something or someone that is trying to mess with our emotional and mental state.
So if you’re able to have these 25 examples of emotional health goals any woman should have in the midst of all the dramas of life and constant state of outrage that the media seems to claim we are in you’ve got it going on.
If only I had a dollar for every time a news headline said something or someone “sparked outrage” I’d have at least $5,000 dollars by now.

18 Positive Affirmations To Stop Procrastinating & Journal Your Way to Your God-Given Dreams
– Positive Daily Affirmations To Stop Procrastinating & Pursue Your God-Given Dreams
Today we are going to talk about affirmations to stop procrastinating (and so much more)! Why?
Because you know the Lord is calling you to do something different with your life. Not just like buying a new Bible or praying a little bit longer or trying that new Sunday school class.
No, He wants you to do something big. Radical. Scary (yikes). And he’s been wanting you to do it for a while now…like maybe even years.
And you keep saying to yourself that one day you’ll actually do it…
But you’re too scared to jump out there in faith and start whatever it is that he’s been wanting you to do.
So you procrastinate because your anxiety is off the charts.
You let everything including the kitchen sink (hey the dishes have to get done, amirite?) get in the way of following God’s plan for your life (ask me how I know).
So today I hope to give you some encouragement! If you have a God-given dream and you can’t stop putting it off, then I think the two articles in this series will help you.
I’m going to share with you some actionable tips & positive affirmations to help you overcome procrastination and how to use them in your journal so you can finally make your God-given dreams a reality!Continue reading
