Stress Tip..by
G. Gaynor McTigue..THU.8/25/05 Don't lose sleep over losing sleep. You're
lying in bed and can't sleep. So you become upset that you're squandering prime
slumber time. Which causes you to lose even more sleep. Which upsets you even
more. Before you know it, it's dawn and you're beside yourself. If this happens
frequently, professional help may be required. But if it's only an occasional
problem caused by a current stressful circumstance, assure yourself of this. While
you may not be asleep, you're at least resting your body and mind in a quiet,
dark, peaceful environment. You're NOT working, you're NOT burning energy, you're
NOT up and about. Resources are being replenished. Use this knowledge to relax
and comfort yourself. Take your mind off present concerns. More than likely you'll
eventually drift off into sleep. And even if it's only for a little while, view
it as needed rest gained. Why make yourself crazy? Based
on G. Gaynor McTigue's acclaimed book Why Make Yourself Crazy? featured
in major publications and on talk shows across America.
Previous Stress Tip Visualize. Picturing in your mind beforehand how you want something to turn out can strongly influence how it actually does. At the very least it will positively affect your approach to it. So do a mental run-through of the event first. For example, visualize yourself as an enthusiastic contributor at a business meeting. See yourself hitting a golf ball successfully before taking a swing. Picture a calm, harmonious evening with the family. (Yes, it's possible!) While it won't assure you'll get the desired result, it will certainly help. Conversely, negative visualization can adversely affect a situation. So try to avoid it. (Remember, things usually aren't as bad as we imagine they'll be.) When you visualize the way you'd like something ideally to play out, you're already one step closer to achieving it. Why make yourself crazy?
