Eliminating Stress by the Natural Process of Evolving Creation
by Michael Levy
The Quest for Truth
Who am I? Where is my place on earth? Wise sages have discussed
these two questions since the beginning of human time. If these
questions cannot be authentically answered and lived, then
humanity will cease to exist. Without any doubt, daily world and
local events, family disputes, money problems, job security, and
health issues can lead to depression, fatigue and anxiety.
This in turn can lead to overeating the wrong type of foods,
lack of exercise, addictive habits such as smoking, alcoholic
drinks and recreational and medical drugs.
You may ask how I have the answers to two of the most demanding
questions ever raised. I was born with weak genes and a family
history of heart attacks and cancers is not very conducive to
living a long and healthy life. I realized many years ago that I
cannot manage stress and if I allow stressful situations to
attach to my brain I will surely succumb to an illness.
Therefore, it made perfect sense to me to eliminate stress from
my life. Now, you might be thinking that is impossible to do. I
agree it is impossible to do if you are a normal person.
Happily, I have never been accused of being normal. I am a
natural person because I identify myself as an eternal creative
energy that does not rely on an ego or personality to act out my
roles in this lifetime on earth. I have found that when I
observe any damaging, negative thoughts such as anger or spite
as the witness rather than the participant, they will evaporate
before I can act them out. Let's examine five problematic areas
of life that can enhance positive health and wealth. Then I will
show you the secret code that will unlock your true potential to
archive the five maintenance points effortlessly.
Communication with Family and Friends
Changing the conversation from idle gossip and chatter to
meaningful dialogue can make a difference in your life. It keeps
your mind in trim order and helps every cell in the body to
regenerate healthy particles. We are told that we need to
socialize with other people or else we may become depressed by
isolation. If we have a choice to associate with negative
gossips or be alone with happy thoughts there is no contest.
The
best remedy is to find people who like to parley in meaningful
conversations. It does not need to be boring. In fact the
opposite is true. Idle chatter is boring even though it has
become an addictive way of expression.
Money Matters
Is money the root of evil or a beneficial ingredient that can
enhance your lifestyle. Do you feel the need for greed or do you
understand when enough is enough? Do you require expert advice?
Is it your money they are after or do they have the ability to
genuinely help you?
Do you pay high brokerage fees? Bank fees? Insurance fees such
as life, extended warranty, old age care ? Do they give you an
umbrella and ask for it back when it rains? Are you in debt?
The only person you can depend upon
is yourself and you are about to do just that!
Overeating and Addictions
Food - junky or healthy eater? Overeating gluttony.
When the urge to overeat or needlessly snack tries to sneak up
on you have
you been told to fight back with these ideas?
- Put on some dance
music or dance with yourself if you do not have a
partner.
- Go for a walk
- Have an invigorating shower
- Go out to a bookstore or library
- Do some sit-ups and press-ups
- If you drink - Alcohol, coffee, sodas change it to simple
filtered
water. Dehydration is the cause of many illnesses that lead to
disease.
If you have tried all this good advice
and you are still addicted then you
need to change something else in your life.
Exercise
Exercise can become harmful when it grows into over exertion or
an
addiction. Moderate exercise such as walking, swimming, yoga,
stretching, and a
few minutes work out with light weights is all that is required
to maintain
a fit body. The most important factor is to exercise the mind.
I'm not sure
where this quote originated however I have modified it a little
and it
will fit in with what you will read shortly ...
Don't walk in
front of me, I may
not follow.
Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.
Walk beside me
and
together we will embrace love and joy.
What Can You Control?
Only your own emotions and perspective of
what you
experience through your senses. Everything passes in time so it
seems
foolhardy to dwell on events that are happening at this moment
in time. Pack all
your woes into baggage (thoughts) that is easily disposable.
Then buy into
new luggage (thoughts) that only contain love and joy. They are
easy to
carry because they are weightless. Every new day that dawns
frame your mind
in an empty canvas so you can paint a fresh picture cultivated
by the cargo
of love and joy. You are now about to find out how to live at the
right
location to address everything you care about. Firstly, read and
meditate on
this three line haiku for a few hours before you read the
explanation that
follows it.
Circle
The 361 degree
The mystics point
You are the extra one in the center of the 360-degree circle.
Without your
one degree there would be no circle simply because you would not
exist.
Every wheel needs a hub so that it can turn with balance and
precession. The
hub is stationary and the wheel revolves around it. The roles
you play
revolve around the thoughts in your mind. You are both the
activity and the
motionless at the same moment in time. Your physical form is in
motion whilst
your central control affects the parts that move. Your real
abode is in the
center of the hub with 360 spokes connected to you. Each spoke
(degree) is
a tree that contains the roles you play on each branch of that
section of
your life. a place of love, truth and beauty. At the base of the
trunk of
each tree is truth.
The branches spread segments of the truth. The blossoms are on
the tip of
each branch that become full of fruit (fruitful) - They contain
Divine
flashes of wisdom that make you healthy, wealthy and wise. Your
mortal self
lives on the surface of the wheel (earth) where each branch
manifests into
human actions fed by yearnings and desire. You live on the rim
in your human
garbs. This is the place of discontent or pleasure. For most
people who
recognize it as their only home their home is filled with
numerous mental
catastrophes and pitfalls... It is a place where the intellect,
ego and
personality enjoy or endure their life on earth. In your central
location you live
in a place of where your intellect, ego and personality cannot
influence
the direction you will travel.
You become the - Self-Existent ‘One.' You make great progress
from this
location, the more you understand it is your only real source of
natural
evolving creativity, that feeds the surface role-plays in the
temporal space
you perform them. You are infinite, you are eternal, you are
creative
magnificence in your true identification.
Home is where the heart is ...
The heart of the matter is a
symbol of
love... To balance the past with the future you need to become
the fulcrum of
the moment. You are the small i (eye) fulcrum in the center,
that is the
seer of intelligence, directed by the big I(eye) that is the I
(eye) of your
creator, evolver... Some call it God, others say ‘by chance.'
Whatever label
you appoint, it is your only source of intelligence and creative
energy.
Together you make life on earth a paradise. A Garden of Eden
that never
needs to become stressed out or affected living amongst family,
friends, money,
eating, addictions or anything that surfaces from unsavory
minds.
