We are all unique individuals with
unique needs, opportunities for
improvement, and context of life,
and preferences.

ASSERT YOURSELF
Saying yes may seem like an easy way to keep the peace, prevent
conflicts, and get the job done right. But it may cause you
internal conflict because your needs and those of your family
come second, which can lead to stress, anger, resentment and
even the desire to exact revenge. And that’s not a very calm
and peaceful reaction. Learn to say no when you need to.
GET ENOUGH SLEEP
Stress can cause you to have trouble falling asleep. When
you have too much to do—and too much to think about—your
sleep can suffer. But sleep is the time when your brain and
body recharge. And the quality and amount of sleep you get
can affect your mood, energy level, concentration, and overall
functioning. If you have sleep troubles, make sure that you have
a quiet, relaxing bedtime routine, listen to soothing music, put
clocks away, and stick to a consistent schedule.
“There is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach to getting healthy,”
Dr. Abu Dabrh continues. “We are all unique individuals with
unique needs, opportunities for improvement, and context
of life, values, and preferences. The scientific evidence and
health care expertise provide us a blueprint to explore and
identify what approaches matter and apply to us to leverage
and live our healthiest selves—one day at a time. Living healthy
is a journey.”
CULTIVATE RESILIENCE
Cultivating resilience can occur by nurturing various
approaches in our daily life, including mindfulness, gratitude,
acceptance, curiosity, compassion, empathy, and living with
purpose. When we talk about resiliency, we really mean how
a person reacts to setbacks and calamities. Do you use your
inner strength to rebound from a challenge, or do you dwell on
the issue and turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms?
NURTURE SELF-CARE
It’s much more difficult to build resiliency without skills to
manage stress. A person can develop resilience by learning to
train attention on more positive aspects of life. Decreasing
negative thoughts in your mind and bringing greater focus on
the most meaningful aspect of an experience works to enhance
resiliency. Improving resiliency can enhance quality of life and
decrease stress and anxiety by teaching you to view life’s
inevitable challenges as opportunities.
“Although it may seem like common sense, being able to
prioritize a certain level of self-care by focusing on things like
regular exercise and getting enough quality sleep as well as
things such as self-compassion through asserting your ability
to say “no”, can have a dramatic effect on how able you are to
manage stress and by extension how you feel physically and
mentally,” Dr. Perlman shares.
