According to Awakening 360; resources are what nourish you, what serves you, what helps you relieve stress, and in the end puts a smile on your face and makes life worth living. Some of these resources will support you and have no side effects and others will cause more problems than the good you feel in the moment. Over time, weeding out the unsupportive resources and replacing them with nourishing ones will help to create more and more well-being. I hope these will all nourish you, support you, and in the end relieve you of your stresses.
