Secret strategies for stay at home or working moms to relax and enjoy stress relief so that they can stay focused. These strategies are very simple and allow stay at home or working moms to improve their listening skills.

Stress relief come from listening “in”, however we sometimes tend to listen “out.”

Let me explain.

Listening “out” means you’re minding other people’s business and wanting to help others. Some stay at home or working moms may want to help other people because they think they need help. This perception may be rooted in a particular belief that someone is dumb, stupid or ignorant.

Therefore some (stay at home and working moms) believe that they have the right to educate that person and teach them how to avoid stressful situations.

The truth is, that person may be all or some of those things.

Wait there is more. How often have you been receptive to someone, telling you what to do even if it is in your best interest?

Some people want to learn, but most people are happy in there present circumstance. Change requires effort and the feeling of a degree of uncertainty. For instance I have been teaching Relaxation and Meditation Classes for over 14 years and people always tell me that they need to learn to relax.

I have sent them a brochure or given them info on how to stay focused. I have seen very few of these people at my classes. If I happen to see them after the event then I get all kinds of excuses.

If you do not know the difference between people who want to learn and people who are happy in their present state you could be butting your head against a stone.

How do you indentify people who want to learn?

Generally, people who want to learn or change to a focused state of stress relief act quickly.

Others need to think about it because they have to ask their friends and associates for permission. If they cannot answer all the questions asked by their friends and colleagues about the benefits of getting stress relief, then it feels safer to stay in their present state. This is an example of listening “out”

So what is listening “in” ;

Listening “in” means that as a stay at home or working mom you have chosen to take stress relief classes to help you relax and stay focused and you do not need permission.

Listening “in” is when you are not locking yourself out of the house.

Listening “in” means that you have been practicing listening to your messages and taking action.

Listening “in” means that you are not all stressed out after talking to your friends on the telephone.

Listening “in” means that as a stay at home or working mom that you can find more time to stop and slow down, in spite of the turbulence of daily living.

Listening “in” means that you are going with the flow and not forcing things to happen.

So what is the morale of the story?

When you stay focused on what you want you will enjoy stress relief.
