Got

Stress ?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do you ever get the feeling

some days, that you’re just spinnin’ yer wheels and taking two steps back for

every step forward? Then there’s

the “good mood versus the bad mood” days when life seems to be just one big up

and down rollercoaster.

 

In this modern age with all

our labor saving appliances, computers, and other high tech devices, you’d

think that life would be a bowl of cherries with leisure time for one and

all. Wouldn’t you? And yet the reverse appears to be our

daily lot. The old days when the

common man was the bread winner in every family are now long gone, and both

husband and wife need to work just to pay the bills and keep the family nose

above water. “Buy now pay later”

is a trap and causes financial stress in the long run. Constant advertising campaigns try to

convince us that we are “not successful” unless we have a nice house, 2 cars,

nice furniture and so on. Then

there’s the current events of the world with wars, terrorism, weapons of mass

destruction, and taxes. On top of

this constant bombardment of “bad news” there’s our regular workaday world with

the stress from our jobs, and the raising of a healthy, happy family.

 

Stress seems to be just one

of those things we “naturally” have to live with. We become so used to dealing with it, that it has become the

new “Norm”.

 

Well, as a Naturopath, I’m

always looking to handle the “Cause” of a problem, so in tracing back to the

origin of these stresses it was interesting to discover they lead back to only

a couple of sources:

1. The

financial obligations that own us and

literally control our

lives.

 

2. The News Media.

 

 

3. The

antisocial people in our lives who hold us down.

 

Knowing this is very

fascinating and is very useful in locating the “Cause”. Furthermore, the solution appears

before us almost magically.

 

In #1, all we have to do is

disagree with having to have so many NICE things, put the TV commercials on

“mute” and stop buying!

 

For #2, stop watching the TV

News channels and stop reading Newspapers altogether.

 

Handling #3 might be a

little more complicated and involved but is still very doable. This might require the quitting of a

job, or the getting of a divorce in an extreme situation where one is married

to a person who erodes their goals and dreams. Usually it is no more complex than staying away from the

negative people who pop up in our lives.

It might be as simple as never talking politics with Uncle Ernie when

you see him once a year over the holiday season. Basically, all we have to do is weed out the negative

characters in our lives as best we can, and distance ourselves from them.

 

I challenge you to try these

simple actions: Stop reading and

watching the News for just two weeks and see if you don’t feel better. On those ultra-high stress days, try

some of our Nerve Sedative Formula and a cup of our Cal-Calm tea, and I wager

you’ll feel much better.

 

Yours in Health and Love,
