My name is Audra Murrieta and I am the founder of Audra, Inc. I have a Youtube channel that is aimed at vlogging and my brand new series, "Feed Your Soul Fridays."
Who Am I?
This blog site will be dedicated to my Lord Jesus Christ. What does that mean? Well that means that my blogs and Youtube videos will be dedicated to encouraging you to live your best life! Many of us live with depression or just constant worry. What if I told you that all of that could be eliminated? What if I had the answer to all of your problems and stress?
The answer is living a life with Christ in it. I know, I know. I can already hear it and it's okay. "I'm not religious." Or "If God is real, than why does He let bad things happen?" All of those are valid questions or statements. I'm not telling you how to think or what to do. However, I do want to offer some encouragement and tips to help you live your best life yet!
Five Tips For An Awesome Less Stressful 2019!
1. Focus on the positive.
Try looking on the brighter side of things. Whatever you choose to focus on is what you are going to feel in your heart. Whenever you start to feel a little negativity or thinking about something that causes you stress, just flip the script! Tell yourself you will not allow yourself to think those negative thoughts and thank God for your blessings instead. After all, Jesus said in Matthew 6:27-Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[e]?
2. Envision Hope!
Have you noticed that when you are feeling negative or feel down that everything seems to just go downhill from there? Try envisioning hope. Try to picture good things and declare the Word of God over yourself. Recite scripture that gives that hope such as Psalm 27:13-I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
3. Count Your Blessings...or write them!
Yes, literally count your blessings. It helps to remember all the amazing things you have in your life right now. It could be your family, friends, or that amazing career you always wanted. Even if it's just all the goodies your got this Christmas. Write them down in a journal or a piece of paper and tape it to your bedroom mirror or anywhere around the house. That way you can be reminded of all the blessings God has given you.
4. Journal!
It really helps me to write down my prayers or worries in a journal. Keeping a journal is not hard to do. You can type it but I find it's more beneficial to actually write it down. There's something special about getting that journal and pouring your heart out in it. Transfer all that stress and worry onto the paper. Read it back to yourself and leave it with God. You can make it as simple by just buying a notebook or as elaborate as you want with a cute journal like mine!
5. Eat Right!
Yes, whatever you put into your body connects to how you are going to feel on the inside. Try drinking more water or snacking on healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables. You don't have to go on this crazy diet to feel good on the inside. I used to suffer from anxiety and I learned that what I ate or drank had a huge impact on my anxiety. Things like coffee or sugary foods would cause my anxiety to skyrocket. I have an amazing friend/sister who keeps me in check whenever she does see that cup of joe in my hand. Big thanks to God for her! :) So try switching up the coffee to decaf or trading in that donut for some yummy strawberries.
I hope all of this helps you and I pray that you will allow God to help you live your best life yet. Stress free and filled with hope! He loves you and wants the best for you!
