The last part of you essay ties in with the 'Welcome Prayer' which I was just reading about this morning and also tried out. I found it helpful.

You may be interested in researching about it...I think when the stress is named consciously it definitely helps.

Thx again for sharing your thoughts Philippine..x

Nicely put into words again!

I wasn't really aware of it before, but when you said background stress, there was immediate recognition. I think being aware of it is a good start and considering which, perhaps different, things are causing stress in the background. if these are several things, take extra good care of yourself and do things that relax. Thanks for the realization!
