A Prescription to Lower Stress

Pawpad with the words happiness, mental wellbeing and success

Do you worry about what others think of you, your abilities and your actions?

Sure, we want people to love us and approve of us and appreciate us, and it feels wonderful when they do. As a matter of fact, the approval of others gives us a shot of oxytocin, the hormone that promotes connectedness and a feeling of community.

When you worry about what other people think of you, though, you usually worry that they don’t approve or don’t like you or don’t think you’re competent. When you do that, you cause a cascade of stress hormones to roll through your body, because your brain is reacting to your thoughts.

You can’t know exactly what someone else is thinking, nor can you control their thoughts. Control yours – when you find yourself worrying about what someone else is thinking, remind yourself that what others think of you is none of your business.

There – doesn’t that feel better?
