Transitions To Reduce Stress
I didn’t realize how much I had filled every quiet moment, checking emails while waiting, scrolling while the coffee brewed, listening to something during every walk. I called it “being efficient,” but what I’d really lost was the ability to be still.
That realization led me to what I now call intentional transitions, the small pauses that help you close one moment before stepping into the next.
Here are five transitions that changed everything for me:
🌿 The Morning Transition — Begin the day without input. Just breathe and arrive in your body before the noise starts.
🌿 Transition Rituals — Mark the end of one thing and the start of another (washing your hands, lighting a candle, taking three breaths).
🌿 Pauses in Conversation — Let silence exist. It deepens connection and slows your nervous system.
🌿 Unscheduled Time — Leave open space in your day — that’s where your nervous system rests and creativity returns.
🌿 Turn Off Notifications — Protect your peace by deciding when you respond, instead of reacting to every ping.
Transitions don’t slow you down; they help you move through life with more presence, clarity, and calm.
