This emotional stress relief technique can help to gently and easily take the edge off any emotional or mental stress. Developed by Dr Jimmy Scott for Health Kinesiology /http:www.hk4health.co.uk, this techniques will gently change the blood flow in the brain to allow us to think more logically and rationally in the face of stress instead of being limited by the emotional flight or fight response which gives us very limited options of how to deal with stress. By lightly and gently holding these neuro-vascular points, you encourage the brain to restore blood flow to its normal pathways rather than the limited pathways of a creature under stress. This can be very useful to do before tests or exams, interviews or potentially stressful situations. It is also handy to do before eating if you are a nervous, anxious or very busy person as our digestion does not function correctly when we are in a stress mode To learn more about the therapy, log on to www.hk4health.co.uk.

Yoga is currently taking its final exam. Even though this science dates back many thousands of years, it has only recently come to the West. This is where Yoga is being empirically tested.

The Western mind demands results and evidence, if none are produced, the system does not survive. This is a valuable approach and Yoga is currently being put though the rigors of this process. So far Yoga is passing with flying colors. Don’t get me wrong, its not that the East did not expect that, its just that this approach filters out the fraudulent and frivolous methodologies, which might otherwise survive simply because of superstition and fear, and the East is just as happy that this is being done as the West. This scrutinizing process results in separating the stones from the diamonds and the diamond that is Yoga is starting to shine though bright and clear.

The effects of stress whether it’s from a business you run, a job you work, a relationship, or just life itself, can be very detrimental to your physical health. Many people fail to recognize certain symptoms of stress if they can’t relate it directly to their emotional state of being. The assumption is that stress only ravages our emotional health.
