Make The Best Of Stressful Situations

By
Home Stager with Feng Shui Manhattan Long Island #888

Yesterday evening, as I was returning from New York City to Long Island, the train service became suspended. We had already left Penn Station and was held at Jamaica station for about 45 minutes. I have to say, even I felt a bit irritated because it was late and the day was long.  I just wanted to rest.

What changed my tune and the tune of so many others on board? Surprisingly, (or maybe not) a group of Santa Con goers. They helped shift the energy by putting on some Christmas tunes that created a sing along with passengers in our train car. It didn't take me long to jump in, sign and change my attitude toward the 'being stuck' on the train situation.  

You had to give it to the Santa's on board. They made the best of a stressful situation.

A good lesson for all of us to look for opportunities to inject some positive energy.

Thanks Laura!

It is the best way to deal with life when something is out of your control. Glad it worked out. Have a great week and happy holidays.

 Good morning Laura. Sometimes the best way to reduce stress is to look out the window it's see all of the things that we are blessed with.

Good for those people for sharing their Christmas spirit!

I would have been frustrated also; I am not good at sitting still, but singing would have helped.

That's so cool. It's nice when people rally around happy instead of stressed. As you might say, Love and Light
