It's up to you...Yoga of the Mind presumes that each person has the means to both create and release stress, that it is caused by a perceived lack of options and that it is self-perpetuating. It further presumes that stress manifests as a disruption or disturbance in the body's energy field; it often feels like "pressure".
Whatever the form of stress - anxiety, depression, headaches, compulsions, etc. - the first order is to feel better. Very often this can happen in just a couple of minutes with a quick round or two of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). Sometimes you have to get more specific about what's not working for you, and finding the core issue can take a little time. Either way...
Your thoughts cause your emotions... And your thoughts and emotions profoundly impact your physical experiences, as well. Newer models of psychology agree that what creates a successful therapy experience is change in one’s patterns of thinking. In other words, while the reasons for stress in the present may be linked to experiences in the past, the feelings that you have now depend on what you think, now. Therefore, it’s possible to change your current experience by changing your current thoughts.
