HEALTHY TIP OF THE WEEK
✨ Break the Drama Cycle ✨

WHY WE’RE DRAWN TO DRAMA

• It feels exciting. That rush? It’s your brain on stress hormones.
• It gives us a role. Fixer. Victim. Hero. Drama hands us a script.
• It feels familiar. If chaos was your normal, peace might feel off.
• It’s a distraction. Focusing on others keeps us from facing ourselves.

BUT HERE’S THE DEAL…
Drama = Stress.
And chronic stress raises cortisol levels, which can lead to:

• Fatigue
• Sleep issues
• Weight gain (especially belly fat)
• Anxiety and mood swings
• Weakened immune system
  Trying to lower your cortisol? Start with lowering the drama.

6 WAYS TO BREAK FREE

✅ Notice the Pattern
Ask yourself: Is this chaos helping me?

✅ Pause Before Reacting
Stillness is a power move.

✅ Set Boundaries
Even with yourself. Especially with chronic drama-bringers.

✅ Get Curious
What’s underneath your urge to stir the pot? Validation? Control?

✅ Normalize Calm
Peace can feel boring—until it starts to feel amazing.

✅ Stay Accountable
Journal it. Talk it out. Don’t let drama sneak back in.

✨ MANTRA
Let drama fade. Let peace take the lead.
