draw flowers.

I was asked in a recent job interview how I handle stress and before really thinking I immediately responded

mindfulness

prayer

good music

deep breathing 

occasionally food (okay, more like frequently)

but now, upon further thought, I would add

watch Random Acts on BYUtv

take pictures

go for a walk

meet a new person

draw flowers.

Most of those things wouldn't really help in a workplace but I got the job so I guess they liked my honesty? 

But really though. Draw flowers. With help from The House That Lars Built's video tutorials of how to draw 31 different flowers. GOLD. 

Okay, real talk now... The best way to deal with stress? 

1. Pray. 

2. Tell yourself, "It will be good." 

3. Repeat. 

"Keep your chin up, believe in God, and believe in good things to come."'

-Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
