Anxiety

Anxiety is one of the most common stress causes in this age. The urge to know what may happen soon whether good or bad will always make our minds release tonnes of adrenaline which comes at time at unmanageable levels.
It is this extreme adrenaline that causes the anxiety to cause panic and other stress which could result in other health complications. Many people out of anxiety have suffered from high blood pressure, heart attacks and even hysteria. This is why i must stress the negativity of anxiety.
We however have to learn to overcome this vice like any other vices we face of we are to live a stress free life. This will call for an attitude and a strong desire to be better.
This is a secret i want to share with you, "You have the power to overcome stress". It is a mind management skill that you have to learn.  You have the power to create your reality and not be anxious about it.
The bible says, "Proverbs 23:7For as he thinks in his heart, so is he." As a man thinks in his heart so does he become. We need to think positively whatever situation we are in so that we create the positive outcomes we need in our lives. The way we think in our lives has the power to manage and avoid possible stress that would be in our lives. What we think is what we become.
The bible also says "Philippians 4:6 New International Version (NIV)
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
We also have a promise from God in his word that teaches us how to manage anxiety which we really do not need in our lives. We need to trust in the Lord for all things and lean not on our own understanding. Whatever we need he will supply according to his riches in glory.
I pray you be blessed as you fight all anxiety that causes stress in your life.

The Sunscreen Song - stress

I find a lot of meaning in the message in this song to help deal with stress.

Lyrics to "Everybody is free to wear sunscreen"
    by Baz Luhrman

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Oh, nevermind, you won't understand the power and
beauty of your youth until they've faded, but trust me in 20 years, you'll look back at photos of
yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous
you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine.
Don't worry about the future, or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra
equation by chewing bubblegum.
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind: the kind that blindsides
you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing every day that scares you.
Sing.
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts; don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.
Floss.
Don't waste your time on jealousy.  Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind.  The race is
long, and in the end, it's only with yourself.
Remember compliments you receive; forget the insults. (if you succeed in doing this, tell me how).
Keep your old love letters; throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch.
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life.  The most interesting people
I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives; some of the most interesting 40 year
olds I know still don't.
Get plenty of Calcium.  Be kind to your knees -- you'll miss them when they're gone.
Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't.  Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't.  Maybe you'll
divorce at 40; maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary.
Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself, either.  Your choices are half
chance, so are everybody else's.
Enjoy your body: use it every way you can.  Don't be afraid of it or what other people think of it; it's the
greatest instrument you'll ever own.
Dance...even if you have no where to do it but in your own living room.
Read the directions (even if you don't follow them).
Do not read beauty magazines; they will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents; you never know when they'll be gone for good.
Be nice to your siblings: they're your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in
the future.
Understand that friends come and go, but what a precious few should hold on.  Work hard to bridge the gaps
and geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you
were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard.
Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths: prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old; and when you
do, you'll fantasize that when you were young, prices were reasonable, politicians were noble, and children
respected their elders.
Respect your elders.
Don't expect anyone else to support you.  Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse,
but you never know when either one might run out.
Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time you are 40, it will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it.  Advice is a form of nostalgia;
dispensing it is a way of wishing the past from the disposal--wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts, and
recycling it for more than it's worth.

Power Over Stress - Love

You have the power to triumph over stress if you believe in your self. Live in love and believe in the abundance of the good all around you. 
Believe in forgiveness and let go of all that have hurt you. There is a freedom that will come from forgiving others. Enjoy the joy that comes from helping other people. Mercy triumphs over judgement.
I believe that love is all it takes to over come all the stress we have in our lives.
Love conquers all stress, anger and bitterness we have in our lives.


LOVE


1 Corinthians 13

 1 If I speak in the tongues[a] of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[b] but do not have love, I gain nothing.
 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
 13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Release Unkown Stress

 Stress is a killer of a lot of enthusiasm which we need to live happier and better each day

Well i guess you will find alot of valuable tips on how to manage stress from the web references i have shared ahead. I have a few weird tips that i think can as well help you realize energies you have hidden within plus let you feel a great deal of relief from unknown anxieties.

Here we go; you will let me know how this worked for you.
  1. Hug five people every day for a week.
  2. Call up 5 long lost friends.
  3. Try and remember your 5th birthday
  4. Make 10 people really feel special and mean it from the depth of your heart
  5. Try smiling for an hour
  6. Appreciate the goodness in people around you
  7. Take a visit to the hospital and say a prayer for the sick there
  8. Thank your boss for the opportunity you have to work with him
  9. Think of a way you could reconcile any broken relationship
  10. Tickle some one near you

Just read this on the web - "http://www.braingle.com/mind/534.html ""If you ask someone why they feel stressed, they may not be able to point to a specific reason. This is because stress often comes from a source that the sufferer may not fully understand. If you have an easily identified source of stress, you are lucky (try to get rid of it). Most people cannot figure out why they feel stressed.

Stress comes in three flavors: physical, emotional, and behavioral. A physical stress might be an injury, an annoying sound or an uncomfortable chair. Emotional stress includes things like fighting with a friend, or the death of a loved one. Behavioral stress might come from alcohol, caffeine, or poor sleep.

Looking at these areas and taking a step back to look at the bigger picture may help someone understand where their stress is coming from. For example, someone who feels tense all the time may not realize that it's because of poor sleep due to noisy neighbors (behavioral and physical stress). A good pair of earplugs may make all the difference in the world! Try examining the various parts of your life to see if you can find something that might be causing stress. Experiment to see if eliminating the stressor makes you feel better."
"Stress is a mental or emotional condition that occurs in response to external influences. All organisms on earth respond to stress in physical and physiological ways. When an antelope is being chased by a lion, it is under stress and it experiences certain physiological changes such as an increased heart rate that help it escape the danger. To conserve energy, the antelope also turns off certain functions that are unnecessary for survival, such as digestion, reproduction and the immune system. People react in the same way to stress, which is why we can develop high blood pressure, ulcers and other illnesses. The only difference is that in most cases the stressor in our lives is not going to eat us for dinner.

Stress has a large impact on our ability to think creatively and to form strong memories. When you are worried about something, your mind wastes energy on the worry and becomes inefficient at working towards a solution to the problem. We have a tendency to jump to conclusions and rush ahead in order to get the stress out of our lives. People under stress rarely step back and try to explore their options.

We have several relaxation techniques that can be used to deal with stress and continue to think creatively."
