Deep breathing isn't going to get rid of your stress

At least not in the long run

While things like deep breathing, meditation, and gratitude might help lower stress levels temporarily

They are a temporary distraction from the negative emotions you have about a problem in your life

And since that problem still exists

Your stress is going to come back

Pretending that gratitude solves everything not only invalidates the very real problems you are dealing with but it also doesn't solve anything

The real way to lower your stress levels is to address the root cause of the problem

And then empower yourself to take one small step in the direction you want to go in

This will not only reduce your stress levels, but also leave you feeling empowered, more confident, and more in control of your life.

Here's what we talk about in today's podcast episode:

- Being stuck in rumination and feeling helpless about your problems
- Why gratitude, meditation, and deep breathing isn't the solution to your stress
- Don't distract yourself, take action instead
- Why you should focus on the problem - but in a healthy way
- Empowering yourself and taking back control of your life
