How to Avoid Impulsive Decisions When You're Not Thinking Straight

Path to Peace with Todd Perelmuter

When we're  anxious, stressed, angry, unhappy, depressed or grieving, impulsive thinking and behavior can easily creep into our lives. This is when we are most likely to succumb to destructive and risky behavior that can make bad problems even worse.

So how do we avoid short-term thinking and behavior? How can we can avoid making bad decisions we'll only regret later? How do we recenter ourselves, see the bigger picture, and stay focused on our long-term well being? 

In today's podcast, I share two of the most important ways we can stay present and keep our wits about us when life gets tumultuous.

Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living. Remember to subscribe to stay up-to-date.
