#245 BITESIZE | How to Manage Overwhelm ...

Dr Rangan Chatterjee: GP & Author
About this episode

We are drowning in things to do and it is a major stressor on our bodies – impacting our health, wellbeing and the quality of our relationships.

 

Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.

 

Today’s clip is from episode 53 of the podcast with Elizabeth Emens, author of the book ‘The Art of Life Admin: How to Do Less, Do It Better and Live More’.

 

Sometimes dealing with everyday tasks can feel like a whole other job.

 

In this clip, Elizabeth explains why ’life admin’ is getting in the way of the things we really want to do. She gives some great strategies to help us steal back some time and bring more calm into our lives.
