Less stress
The stress you experience is not caused by the things that
happen around you. Your stress comes from the way you react
to those things that happen.<P>
To experience less stress, you do not need to undertake some
grand project that will change the world around you. It is
simply a matter of observing and adjusting the way you
respond to life.<P>
The things that really upset you are able to get to you
because you allow them to do so. You may not be able to stop
them from happening, yet you can absolutely choose not to
obsess over them.<P>
Yes, your stress may indeed be telling you that you need to
take some action or another. Yet after you receive the
message, there is no need to continue holding on to the
stress.<P>
Reducing your stress is as easy as re-directing the focus of
your thoughts. The more you practice doing it, the more
quickly and naturally it comes.<P>
The thoughts you choose to hold in your mind will determine
the amount of stress you have. So choose to leave the stress
behind, and put your energy into positive, fulfilling
pursuits.<P>
