How Do You React to Stress?

November 1, 2013 By Vanessa Rae Romero

Tom and I

I don't know about you, but I'm ready for the weekend!

This week has been a test of my resolve to not overreact and handle life stressors in a healthy way.

The week started with my mom, who has Lewy Body Disease, having a seizure and being hospitalized. A few hours after the call from my dad, my oldest son, Jacob called to tell me his car had to be towed and was in need of repair. This on the heal of spending $2,000 last month on his lemon. I was literally on the phone with Jacob when my other son, Brodrick came home from school, scared to tell me he hit a cement pole in our parking garage…with my car! A triple whammy all in one day.

Then, last night, Tom and I crawled into bed to find the cat had peed on it! It soaked through the duvet, down comforter, sheets and mattress pad. Thank God it did not get on the mattress! As Tom was freaking out, I remained calm through it all.

I said to him in my sweetest demeanor…DID YOU KNOW stress is just as much about how we react to things as it is the actual circumstance!

Now, I realize this isn't always easy, but coming from someone who has experienced and recovered from significant adrenal fatigue, which by the way is caused by stress, I think I know what I am talking about.

It might not be easy, but we all have a choice in how we respond to life's stressors.

That period of my life, while probably the most painful time, was also the time I experienced the most growth and change. I became a new and improved person.

If this speaks to you, I wanted to let you in on something…last spring I did an exclusive interview with The Village Network. This week only, you can listen to my personal story of how I healed my hormones, recovered from adrenal fatigue, reversed melasma AND lost 25 pounds, when you download the Fall Into Health package.

AND JUST LIKE THAT...our little buddy is seven!!! He loves the great outdoors; fishing, swimming, and four-wheeling are his favorite things. He wakes up happy and goes to bed happy. He is super sweet and gives the best hugs. He is humming, singing, or whistling at all times. He makes us all smile and spreads joy wherever he goes. Happy birthday Asher, you are oh so loved!!! 💜

Since the very beginning of our time with Young Living Essential Oils, I have asked God what I did to deserve the success we’ve had. He has blessed and enriched our lives with so so so many special people that I deeply care about. We are excited when new members say yes and super sad when members move along. Yesterday, we had a fun gathering in our home, for the first time in a long time. I cried. I’m crying now. This isn’t my YL “business”. These are PEOPLE that God placed in our path to love, support, serve, encourage, and educate. I’ve been doing this for 7 1/2 years and plan to do it for at least 7 1/2 more!!! 💜🤍🖤

I bought this petunia planter for myself on Mother’s Day. I have deadheaded and watered her daily. Sometimes twice a day. In return she has brought me so much JOY!!! And when that joy runs out, I have 16 more flowering planters to tend to. 💜💜💜 #addictedtoflowers
