If it
wasn't for finding your site last year, reading all the newsletters as
if it was the last thing on earth I needed to do, I would not have been
so bent on finding the answer to the why's, what else's, and what for's
about my life. I'm applying as quickly as I can the principles that
I've learned, and have seen amazing and quick changes. To everyone out
there, these principles work - if you work them. Again, thank you for
your remarkable and mind-awakening information.

"4 Key Tips for De-Stressing the Mind"
by
Aila Accad
The Mind is a wonderful tool for observation, conceptualization, processing information and in short - thinking. However, when the tool becomes the Master, stress is inevitable.
Like a computer, your Mind holds lots of data. It also has a program to organize that data. Each mind programs the input it receives through unique perceptions and interpretations developed in early childhood. This childhood template is your mind's operating system until you choose to change it.
De-stressing involves becoming aware of and updating these childhood beliefs.
Two core sets of beliefs - Who you think you are (self-concept) and Who you think you 'should' be (self-ideal) evolve from what we hear, see and experience as children. You do not knowingly choose these self-images, which become the foundation for Self-Esteem, your value for yourself and Self-Determination, your percieved power to make free choices. Failing to achieve this unrealistic self-ideal is inevitable and believing you have limited power to choose freely, creates DISTRESS.
The basic categories of response to distress are fight or flight.
Is your tendency to run, hide, and internalize stress in isolation, passivity or depression; or, to lash out, attack and externalize stress in aggression, domination, or anxiety? Either way, the core issues and solutions are the same.
The tips that follow are simple, logical and doable. Implementation may be challenging though. There are suggested resources, to support you in using these tips at the end of this article.

Ask The Expert
Question: What does it mean that, "Your actions are different from who you are?"
Answer: There's an old saying, "You're a human BEING (a spiritual being who is experiencing life as a human), not a human DOING (not a person who is in constant motion and action and doing things to justify your existence)." Therefore, you, as a spiritual being, have thoughts and
beliefs that result in certain actions. However, you are not the actions themselves.
Think of it this way. When you drink some water, that's an action. However, it's not who you are. It's you making a decision to sip some liquid to take care of thirst. The action is separate from your being. It's simply a choice, and the choice can be changed. You could choose not to drink and become dehydrated. Or you could decide to have some tea, coffee, soda or some other liquid. The action you take is a result of your choices, which is a result of your beliefs. And even your beliefs are separate from who you are, because they can be changed.
What cannot be changed is that you are a spiritual being. That is the core of who you are. Anything else, beliefs, attitudes, choices, actions, can all be changed. They are simply outer accouterments or accessories that you've chosen.

I've added a Twitter Feed to the sidebar of my blog that shows my past 10 tweets. Most of my tweets are affirmations, quotes, or links to articles that I found interesting and wanted to share.
I've posted the video, "Mindfulness: Being In The Now" to accompany my last article, and include a tip of how to begin the practice.
In "Ask The Expert," I answer the question, "Why say an affirmation in the present tense."
