Play this if you’re stressed 🫶🏻

“A Little to the Left” is a game in which you sort, stack, and organize household objects into the right spot.

The game is simple, and you’re basically tidying a scene. It helps me relax, and I don’t have to focus too hard 😅

If you're stressed...
Who am I to think my life's work is more important than the work Jesus did? Is my time more valuable? Can I accomplish more than Him? Of course not. The King of Kings lived His life serving others and worshipping the Father and that was good enough for Him so it's good enough for me. 🤎

high cortisol making you stressed & anxious? ❤️‍🩹
cortisol is your stress hormone that tells your body, "hey 👏🏻 it's go time! time to get into action." that's all really great when you're running from a tiger, buuuut now tigers look like slack notifications that won't stop going off or stress over a long to do list.

Stressed? Try This First
When you feel stressed, your brain wants relief fast. Scrolling. Snacking. Checking out. Anything that quiets the noise for a second. But most of those don’t actually move the stress. They just distract you from it. Writing does something different. It gives the stress somewhere to go.
