Modern technology has plopped us all into an intense pressure-cooker. Most of us don't realize how high the heat is because it has been turned up very gradually over our life-span. Compare the high-speed, high-mobility, high-information, goal-oriented, and artificially lighted culture we live in with the agrarian-paced world of our ancestors just a century ago. We've lost the natural space and rhythms of life that brought us natural rest in between the work of the day, as well as a good night's sleep without electric light to prolong the day. We could go on and on about the impact of modern technology, but few people need to be convinced that we need real help finding ways to master the new dynamics of the 21st century instead of letting them master us.
Very often stressed out feelings go hand in hand with a sense of life being out of control, which is why we link these two topics together. If you know that the source of your stress comes from one or more of the other LifePieces, you'll want to refer back to the LifePiece page and focus on that area. But whatever the source of stress, there are some common and effective ways to deal with immediate pressure relief.
We have a 'Life Organizer and Stress Relief Kit' we would like you to have that can give you help in this area. Just email us at TheConneXion@bellsouth.net and we'll send it to you free of charge.
