You Can Handle It

1. Mindful Breathing
-4-6 breathing (Dr. Eric Potterat)
-6-2-7 centering breath (Dr. Jason Selk)
-Physiological sigh (Dr. Andrew Huberman): two inhales through the nose (one deep, one shorter) followed by a long exhale through the mouth

Mindful breathing lowers cortisol and activates the parasympathetic nervous system; studies show it reduces stress by up to 44% in just a few weeks of practice.


2. You Can Handle It

Whatever happens to me, given any situation, I can handle it! Never let these three little words out of your mind—possibly the three most important little words you’ll ever hear: I’ll handle it. Dr. Susan Jeffers

If you want to be successful, you have to take 100% responsibility for everything that you experience in your life. This includes the level of your achievements, the results you produce, the quality of your relationships, the state of your health and physical fitness, your income, your debts, your feelings—everything! Jack Canfield

Reminding yourself “I can handle it” builds stress resilience through self-efficacy; studies show high self-efficacy individuals experience 33% lower stress responses during challenging tasks.


3. Relentless Solution Focus

Relentless Solution Focus (RSF) is simply defined as within 60 seconds, replacing all negative thoughts with solution-focused thinking. Although simple in definition, at times this can be extremely difficult to do. RSF is mental toughness. They are one and the same. -Dr. Jason Selk

“What is one thing you can do right now to make this better?”-Dr. Jason Selk

“Keep moving forward. When you have problems, keep moving forward. Stay in the fight. Don’t ever let those problems win. Because there is always a solution. Always.” -Dr. Jason Selk

A positive mindset and relentless solution focus reframe challenges, boosting resilience and lowering cortisol; research shows optimistic thinkers experience up to 30% less stress-related distress.


4. Ask for help from your Personal Board of Directors (mentors, coaches, therapists, doctors, spiritual advisors, trusted friends and family)

“If you can’t change something you want to change in 30 days…you need professional help to do so.” Whether cleaning out your garage or clearing out your head. -Dr. Alan Weiss

Forming a personal board of directors provides guidance, accountability, and social support; research shows strong support networks reduce stress levels by up to 50%.
