go away stress

Excerpted from a post by David Romanelli on Yahoo!'s Health Expert Blogs:

Sometimes we all get too closely connected to the day-to-day bump and grind of life. It's so important to occasionally step back, gain perspective, and dive into the mystery. Here are some techniques and ideas to inspire the plunge:

1. Recognize that whether by master stroke or pure chance, there is great intelligence in the universe.

Fact: A single human cell measuring 1/1,000 of an inch across contains instructions within its DNA that would fill 1,000 books of 600 pages each (Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now)

2. Minimize resistance.

“Nothing on earth can overcome an absolutely non-resistant person.” -- Florence Shinn

3. Spend time in nature.

“Genius learns from nature.” -- Oscar Wilde

4. Be patient with your struggles and challenges.

“Infinite patience yields immediate results.” -- Wayne Dyer

5. Free the mind from daily routines.

“Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free the mind.” -- Bob Marley

6. Smile…everything is evolving just as it should.

“Sometimes joy is the source of your smile but sometimes a smile is the source of your joy.” -- Thich Nhat Hanh
