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.

The Energy Model, which follows, provides several excellent tools for manipulating your thinking, or managing your mind, and opens possibilities you may not have even considered. 

 

When it’s necessary to release habits, or automatic negative responses to current experiences, Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT, is the fastest and most exciting tool available. It’s not only fast, it’s easy to learn.  In about half-an-hour you can learn enough to begin getting positive results on your own.  Download the free “get started” material here http://www.emofree.com/a/?2537/1.

Choosing to see stress as an energy issue makes it a lot easier to deal with. You can gain a lot of ground without having to do deep personal research about where or how this issue came into your life, and you can do it without having to buy into diagnoses and all that they imply.  Which feels better to you, "this part of my life isn't quite what I'd like it to be, so I'm going to do some work on it" or, "What's wrong with me; I don't seem to be able to fix this?"
