You see, I spent almost 50 years of my life trying to live up to societal and other's expectations of me. Trying to be what I thought others wanted,...
It's been well documented that stress contributes to, among other things, cardiac disease, high blood pressure, higher rates of illness, obesity and even depression.
It's also well known that stress is our constant companion. However, the good news is for most of us, through lots of practice, we can become our own experts at elevating our stress levels. But the ability to relax is an acquired skill.
