STRESS - FRIEND OR FOE?
You may
know that Iridology is the analysis of health from the (coloured)
irises of the eyes. This intriguing method of diagnosis can easily
identify whether or not a person has a 'high stress'
constitution.
Look closely for the close and tightly drawn radial fibres that
make up this type of eye. They usually have a lot of white in them
too.
Steve McQueen had this type of constitution, as does Paul Newman.
Millions were, and still are, mesmerized by their bright eyes. Any
Iridologist will tell you that those eyes simply indicate a high
stress constitution! And as with all these types, there is a
tendency to get certain illnesses - for example, arthritis,
exhaustion and nervous conditions.
Is A 'High Stress Constitution
Good or Bad? Some and some.
On the positive side, it enables you to find inner resources when
you need them. You won't collapse in a heap when extraordinary
demands are made on your energy at the end of a heavy day. You'll
kick your adrenal glands into overdrive, and bring forth a burst of
energy.
On the negative side - you can't do this repeatedly without your
underlying health suffering. Sooner or later - you'll pay. Watch
out for asthma, heart problems, or nervous breakdowns.
What can you do? If you
have a high stress constitution - and you know if you have - relax
regularly. Preferably every day.
Don't continue to work while you eat lunch. Take a
break.
Don't rely on alcohol - that's just more congestion for the
liver, which already gets congested easily with this type of
constitution.
If you are in a high stress job or home situation - you can't
change it instantly. But you can have a five year plan. Don't just
go on from day to day thinking nothing can be done.
And it is very valuable to take a course of alternative medicine
every year to build your nervous system.
There are many nerve formulations on the market which will do fine.
Ask the advice of a reputable herb company, and take a three month
herbal course every year.
Or, if you prefer acupuncture, book a few sessions annually with
your practitioner. It won't be money wasted.
New Year's Resolution? As the New Year
is with us, it's a good time to think about whether you spend
enough time relaxing. We all have to find the way that suits
us.
Me - I'm off on a five day relaxing break. The car stays in the car
park - or I'd just be off exploring the local sights. I'll take a
few good books; I have an hour-and-a-half massage booked; I'll cook
some good food, and maybe have just a few beers. And the holiday
wouldn't be complete for me without my 11 and 12 year old kids and
their friends to share it with! It may not be your idea of heaven,
but I love it.
Whatever you like doing, maybe it's this year that you'll
really start spending as much time relaxing as you need and you
deserve. You know it makes sense.
Have a fantastic year!
