Hi, I’m Carolyn Scott-Hamilton from The Healthy Voyager.

My signature approach to stress management is holistic and very practical. A few core techniques I lean on and teach often are:

  1. Daily “me time”: Even 5 minutes of quiet, deep breathing, a latte break, or reading something uplifting to reset your nervous system.
  2. Breaking your day into focused chunks (like the Pomodoro method) so you are not “on” nonstop.
  3. Mindfulness tools: noticing stressful thoughts, gently letting them go, and grounding in the present moment.
  4. Emotional awareness: asking, “Is my reaction proportional to the actual situation?” to dial down overreactions.
  5. Simple, consistent self-care: small rituals (a walk, stretching, lotion on your hands, a hot shower) woven into the day, not just “once in a while” spa days.

Would you like a quick, 5‑minute stress routine you can plug into your day?
