“My stress stresses me out to the point where I’m too stressed to deal with stress!”
How to make yourself unwell, sick and diseased. It's SO easy - chances are you are already an expert!
“Hello! This is stress speaking to you! You have been reading about me for quite some time now, so I thought I would introduce myself. You see, you cannot get rid of me. I am here to stay. But not everyone is troubled by me. I don’t know why…I try my best to be annoying and present, but still I cannot reach some people. I wonder why…”
“I am not a virus, bacteria, fungus or any kind of infection. I do not come from outside of your body. You welcome me in with your thoughts, ideas, worries, anxieties. In short I enter when your mind is unsettled!”

“The truth is that stress doesn’t come from your boss, your kids, your spouse, traffic jams, health challenges. Or other circumstances. It comes from your thoughts about these circumstances.”

Stress is personal! There is not one thing that causes stress. It is different for everyone and not everyone is affected by the same stress. Therefore, it is our personal reaction to the, situation, thought, word, action, feeling that causes a reaction within us. This reaction is what causes the stress. And how long we choose to hold on to it, determines how it affects the physical body.
There is only one person who can alleviate the stress causing you physical, mental, emotional and spiritual PROBLEMS. YOU!
If you are holding on to the past, to yesterday, last month, last year, or many years ago ... you will become ill. You will have emotional pain and unhappiness.

“If you are depressed, you are living in the past.
If you are anxious, you are living in the future.
If you are at peace, you are living in the present.”

In a recent article, the Wall Street Journal, stated “the number of Americans expected to have at least one anxiety disorder (stress) in the course of their lives is staggering: one in three…according to researchers at Harvard Medical School”.
“A certain amount of anxiety is a good thing, motivating us to study for tests, prepare for presentations, save for retirement. Too much anxiety, however, can be incapacitating.”
Taking a drug or medication only masks the symptoms of stress. It does not get rid of it.
Even being treated by holistic techniques may alleviate the symptoms, but until you address the issues causing the stress, it will return.
The Wall Street Journal also stated: “There is mounting evidence that mindfulness techniques, like meditation and yoga, are effective at easing anxiety symptoms.”
The longer you hold on to the past - emotional trauma, pain, grief, anger, regret, guilt, hatred, shame, fear, the worse your health and your life will become.
We are taught to ‘cope’. Coping is not healing!

A few basic pointers
a) Drugs and alcohol can numb the pain you feel. But, they keep personal issues trapped inside your body, destroying your cells and your health.
b) The part of your body that is sick, directly relates to the mental-emotional issues that you hold onto. i.e. Breaking a leg may mean slow down, or stop and reflect. Cancer could indicate problems with - or the death of - a spouse, child, or parent. Asthma may mean you feel trapped, or stifled, that you need to escape a situation. Loss of hearing or ear pain may indicate there is something you don't want to deal with!

Negative emotions create a highly acidic body. An acidic body becomes a sick body.
Each one of us is capable of creating beautiful dreams or horrible nightmares. Take responsibility for all the choices you have ever made, or will ever make, because the consequences you perceive today are a direct result of the choices you made yesterday.
Your immune cells react to your thoughts. Negative thoughts compromise your immune system.
We all want love, health, peace, and prosperity!
