As I get older into adulthood I feel like more and more things require my attention. Trying to juggle work, family, home maintenance etc I'm constantly busy. I can almost never find time to rest because there is always something that has to be done. How do you find time to rest and cope with the stress but also get the things on your plate complete?

It's very hard to do. I can only go into what helped with me but I schedule it in. Everything else in my life is basically scheduled so you have to make the time. Meditation

I meditate 30 minutes every other day. It's helped significantly. Think of it like a gym schedule and hold yourself to it. Obviously there is never enough time in the day to do everything you want but this thing is one of the most important at this point.
