This is nice para sa mga overworked !
O, bakit ka na naman na-i-istress? Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed?
Meron ka bang deadline na i-bi-beat ngayong araw na ito?
It's important to understand stress before we can effectively manage it
kaya Stress ang pag-uusapan natin ngayon.
Ayon sa mga scientists mayroong dalawang uri ng stress.
Eustress and Distress.
Eustress is positive stress. Ito ang nararamdaman ng isang dalaga
kapag dumarating na ang kanyang manliligaw at may daladalang flowers.
Eustress din ang tawag sa stress na nararanasan ng mga nagwo- work-out
when they are doing their exercises.
Ang mga athletes, pagkatapos na ma-stress ang kanilang muscles,
they rest para ma-repair ang kanilang muscles.
Kapag hindi sila nagpahinga, the stressed muscles will be injured.
When injury happens, yan ang distress.
Distress is the negative side of stress.
Nakakaramdam ka na ng sakit ng ulo, pagsakit ng tiyan,
hindi na makatulog, di pa makakain.
Distress ang uri ng stress na nagreresulta sa kung ano-anong sakit
tulad ng hypertension, minsan nga ay emotional breakdown pa.
Ano ba ang pwede nating gawin para ang stress natin ay hindi maging distress? Famous author and inspirational speaker,
Dr. John Maxwell has the following suggestions:
Don't be overly sensitive to criticism.
Tanggapin na natin ang katotohanang hindi natin kayang i-please ang lahat ng tao.
Talagang mayroong hindi aayon sa iyo kahit na napaka-noble
ng iyong mga intentions and motives.
So when you receive criticisms, take it constructively kung sensible ang criticism.
If you think the criticism is not objective, huwag na lang pansinin at ng hindi ka ma-distress.
Don't take too much pride in your achievements.
Ang pride ay parang uling, ginagatungan niyan ang distress.
Ang taong proud ay mas lalong nadi-distress dahil masyado niyang iniingatan
ang kanyang achievement at accomplishment.
Minsan nga our achievements hinder us from growing and learning
kasi sinasabi natin sa ating sarili, aba may na-accomplish na ko.
Mas mahusay ako kaysa sa iba, hindi na nila ko pwedeng turuan.
Ang lungkot ng buhay kapag naging ganyan ang attitude natin.
Don't harbor jealousy over the achievement of others.
Ang taong mainggitin madalas ding madistress,
kasi nga totoo namang mayroong mas higit kaysa sa atin.
Natural ang iba ay maaaring magkaroon ng achievements na wala tayo di ba.
Instead of being jealous or envious,
let's learn to rejoice in the successes of others.
Malay mo malibre ka pa bogchi dahil nakikigalak ka sa kanilang tagumpay, di ba?
Don't focus on your weaknesses and inadequacies.
Ang sugat kapag mas lalo mong ginalaw mas lalong lalala at baka maimpeksyon.
The more you focus on your weaknesses and inadequacies
the bigger the tendency of wallowing in self-pity.
While it is important to acknowledge your inadequacies,
it is helpful to focus on your strengths and capabilities.
One effective way of fighting distress is by counting our blessings - the good things which life brings.
When we have grateful hearts,
we will always be reminded that we are too blessed to be stressed!
Someone wrote that
"The shortest distance between a problem and a solution is the distance between your knees and the floor.
The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything."

The Mayonnaise Jar and two cups of coffee

“THIS IS NICE TO READ”

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24hoursin a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups ofcoffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items infront of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a verylarge and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golfballs. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreedthat it was. The professor then picked up a box of small pebbles andpoured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolledinto the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the studentsagain if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor nextpicked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course the sandfilled up everything else.

He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with aunanimous "yes." The professor then produced two cups of coffee fromunder the table and poured the entire contents into the jar,effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The studentslaughed. "Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.

1) The golf balls are the important things - your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions. Things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

2) The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.

3) The sand is everything else - the small stuff. If you put the sand into the jar first, "he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls".

The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on thesmall stuff, you will never have room for the things that areimportant to you.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Play with your children.Take time to get medical check-ups.

Take your partner out to dinner.

There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.Take care of the golf balls first...the things that really matter.

Set your priorities.

The rest is just sand.

"One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffeerepresented.The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show youthat no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for acouple of cups of coffee with a friend."

Drinking Cold Water After Meal-Cancer! & A serious note about heart attacksPrecautions is better than cure............Drinking Cold water after meal

= Cancer!For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal.However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have justconsumed. Itwill slow down the digestion.Once this "sludge" reacted with the acid, it will break down and beabsorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will linethe intestine.Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is bestto drink hot soup or warm after a meal.A serious note about heart attacksHEART ATTACK PROCEDURE": (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!)Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going tobe the left arm hurting.Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heartattack.Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep.Let's be careful and be aware.The more we know, the better chance we could survive...A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life. Readthis... It could save your life!!Let's say it's 6.15 pm and you're driving home .Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm and up into your jaw.You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your home.Unfortunately you don't know if you'll be able to make it that far.You have been trained in CPR, but the guy that taught the course didnot tell you how to perform it on yourself."HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE":Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously.A deep breath should be taken before each cough, deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm.In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!! "

The Organs of your body have their sensory touches at the bottom of your foot, if you massage these points you will find relief from aches and pains as you can see the heart is on the left foot. Typically they are shown as points and arrows to show which organ it connects to. It is indeed correct since the nerves connected to these organs terminate here.

He made us walk so that we will always be pressing these pressure points and thus keeping these organs activated at all times. So, keep walking...
