Do you feel like your days are ruling you with chaos rather than you ruling over your day and getting things done? Are you finding it hard to have any quiet time? Are you reacting to events that come at you in your day? Do you wish to have more structure to get things done and to feel more in control? Well you are not alone in feeling these emotions!

In this episode, we’ll dive into 5 strategies to tackle the lack of control we can have in our days with our time so you can find some quiet time and to reduce your stress. Time is precious! Let’s be a good steward of the time God has given us!

Take control of your day with 5 time management strategies: time blocking, morning/evening routines, batch tasking, night-before prep, and phone monitoring. These free up time for strength training, stress management, and eating well with Mediterranean diet recipes. Invite God into your day—pray, prioritize, and experience His peace while staying organized and focused.

Scripture referenced: Philippians 4:6
