Now this is my kind of Stress relief. Just in case you've had a rough day, here's an 8 step stress management technique recommended in the latest psychological texts. It really works.... 1. Picture yourself near a stream. 2. Birds are softly chirping in the cool mountain air. 3. No one but you knows your secret place. 4. You are in total seclusion from the hectic place called "the World". 5. The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of serenity. 6. The water is crystal clear. 7. You can easily make out the face of the person you're holding underwater. 8. See, You're smiling already. 
I'm regressing back into my youth, I just have to figure out how I'm going to convience my body to come along with me.

Hey Bud, I've come close lately to doing this stress relief. If they would just leave me alone every thing would be fine but NO they have to come mess with me.

Hello everyone, What about these Stress Management Techniques? Changing what you can change and letting go of what you cannot change is a common stress management technique. This is incorrect as if we as human beings fail to stand up for what we believe then we are heading for more stress than what we can tolerate. Life is fair, the problem is people are unreasonable; therefore, we are looking at a wealth of stressors and stress. You are in the process of meeting stress at its limits, if you are sitting around waiting for others to control your life then. The system often makes it difficult for us to cope with the many stressors we endure daily. Learning stress management techniques that can help us deal with life and the many people in the world is the only solution we have to be successful. We need to learn how to take time out of each day to take care of self-allowing us room to handle our responsibilities. We need tools for socializing with the people in society, including effective communication. If we are set up with the right tools, our stress management scheme will lead us to great results. Finally, stress and humans we cannot avoid them, but we can take control of our life. Louies. |

my sisters definition of stress: the feeling you have when you suppress the urge to choke the living daylights (not her word  ) out of some poor fool (not her words again ) who desperately needs it.
