Stress + Rest = Growth

When we get enough sleep and exercise, receive adequate nutrition, use good coping skills, take appropriate breaks, and talk openly with others, we are rested and rejuvenated so that our stress results in growth.

Samuelson quote

“Just as we should not lower the standards that the Lord has established for the conduct of His servants, we are also not authorized to raise them. … Be sure that you do not have higher standards for yourself or others than the Lord has established.”

(Elder Cecil O. Samuelson, MTC devotional, March 19, 2002)

What Can I Do to Help Others?

• Listen (calm, curious, compassionate).

• Walk and talk.

• Build them up and encourage them. (“Everything will be OK.”)

• Help them identify the one thing they need to do now (i.e., “All I really need to do right now is …”)

• Encourage them to take time for meals, sleep, preparation day.

• Talk about solutions.

Monson quote

“Mortality is a period of testing, a time to prove ourselves worthy to return to the presence of our Heavenly Father. In order to be tested, we must sometimes face challenges and difficulties. At times there appears to be no light at the tunnel’s end—no dawn to break the night’s darkness. … If you find yourself in such a situation, I plead with you to turn to our Heavenly Father in faith. He will lift you and guide you. He will not always take your afflictions from you, but He will comfort and lead you with love through whatever storm you face.”

(President Thomas S. Monson, “Looking Backward and Moving Forward,” Ensign, May 2008)
