Jay poses a question that resonates deeply: How many of us stress about our well-being? From health and meditation to daily journals and affirmations, the pursuit of self-improvement often brings with it a surge of stress.
Jay challenges you to explore the idea of stress as a spectrum, a nuanced scale rather than a binary state. This concept is monumental and understanding stress can be a game changer for you this coming year.
In this episode, Jay unpacks the idea that sometimes the goal of wanting to be better and do better puts us under greater pressure.
Let Jay guide you as he explains positive stress, distress and the lessons he learned this year that are meant to be carried forward and put into practice. It's not just about learning; it's about application, about making these lessons a living, breathing part of our lives.
This episode is your go to to close off the year and prepare yourself for a beautiful journey in 2024.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jay Shetty
