I've had my share of furious episodes, so I've seen first hand how anger may overcome you and inform every action you make. Yet discovering how destructive it may be truly hit me a few months ago. A Good Technique I was catching up with an acquaintance that I haven't seen in quite awhile. She'd been experiencing a harsh time for the past year. Her frustration over her marriage and her business life had been expanding for well over a year. As she jabbered about what was occurring in her life and why everybody in it was causing her frustration, I took heed worried that one day all this rage would harm her health. She was already suffering from an assortment of physical symptoms that I'd bet was due to her emotional tension. We were joined by an acquaintance who shared a story about a different individual being taken advantage of by a friend who ended up on the bad end of the karma caravan. My really angry acquaintance hurried to condemn the individual in the story -- who she doesn't know -- who committed the unfairness. I was shocked by the hate in her voice, particularly considering she didn't even know the individuals in the story. It made me so really sorry to see how the anger spilling over in my acquaintance was morphing her into somebody that I didn't even recognize. Not only was she harming herself, but also she was harming those around her, including her three kids. Fortunately, there are more constructive ways to deal with rage -- yoga and breathing for instance. Here are a few drills to help you diffuse anger and prevent yourself from winding up overpowered by it: Anger doesn't have to consume you from the inside. Instead of suppress it; try working it out with these exercises. Yoga includes physical postures, meditation and breath work or pranayama. Any of these factors may be utilized for anger management. We will center on breath work. Pranayama is a common term to describe all yoga breathing drills. Prana stands for life force and yama means to direct it. Below are two different sorts of yoga breathing exercises that have been simplified to make them simpler and more practical to accomplish. Each pranayama may help you handle anger effectively. Attempt this simple yoga breathing exercise to help you chase away anger. Breathe in through the nose and making a "ha" sound, breathe out the mouth and stick out your tongue. Duplicate two to three times. This lets your breathing get deeper and help release physical stress in the lungs and chest. This is a version of "lion's breath." It will just release the anger without drama or trauma. Restart normal breathing by breathing in and breathing out through the nose. Without being forceful, take a couple of breaths where you pause somewhat at the top of the inhale and then exhale. If you feel dizzy or faint, stop the breath work and merely return to normal breathing. Now, attempt to do several more rounds of the pausing breath work with somewhat longer breaks between the breathing in and breathing out. Inhale for a count of four, hesitate for a count of two and exhale for a count of four. Duplicate two more times. Stop the breath work if you get dizzy or you feel you're working beyond your lung's capacity. If you experience any physical irritation, merely return to normal breathing. You've completed breath work for day one. For the following thirty days, repeat the lion's breath and a simple three rounds of pausing breath work. As long as you're able to do the pausing breath work with no discomfort, persist in your routine. Once you've comfortably practiced this breath work for at least a couple of days, put it to the test: the next time you sense you're going to lose your temper, take a lion's breath. Then, do the pausing breath work: breathe in for four, hesitate for two, breathe out for four. Even doing this for one round will help you dislodge your anger long enough to intensify your breathing. Rehearsing this breathing exercise will help you learn to hesitate. When you're able to pause in a confrontational situation, you'll be more likely to be responsive, not reactive.

While there are a lot of keys to effective meditation, the essence of the practice is learning to center your attention as you decide. How does this relate to fear? You might have heard it said that each moment in life offers you a choice: you are able to come from love or fear. There are a lot of ways of stating the contrasting choice that every moment offers, but the basic idea is the same: you are able to live from a positive life-affirming place or in a mode of negativeness and protection. Breath Through It Choice is a skill. It means that you are able to see alternatives and center on one versus the other. Put differently, you are able to consciously center your attention according to how you choose to be. This is where meditation comes in. Meditation trains your awareness and your skills of attention. For instance, one way to meditate is to center on your breathing. You keep your attention centered in your breathe. You find a comfy, upright, seated position in a calm, private space, relax your body, and center on following the natural rhythm of breathing in and breathing out. The skill comes in when something enters your brain that's other than paying attention to your breathing, say a thought of other things you have to do, a memory, or some feeling or sensation in your body. In meditation, you deal with your drifting thought, feeling, or sensation in 3 steps: 1. You recognize the thought, feeling, or sensation that's other than your point of centering (in that case your breathing). You become cognizant that your attention has roamed. You accept whatever has seized your attention. You welcome it into your awareness. 2. You gently release the thought, feeling, or sensation that's seized your attention. You're aware of it, but you let it go, without giving it any more time, energy, or care. 3. You return to your meditative centering (again, in that case, your breathing). As many times as your brain wanders to additional thoughts, feelings, or sensations, you repeat these 3 steps. Recognize, release, and return. The more you meditate the better you become at keeping your focus and the easier it becomes to let go of anything that pulls you away from your centering. This is a skill that you are able to apply to anything that you do in life. For instance, you may desire to build a better relationship with somebody. That's a conscious focus for you. As you get close, fears may arise as a result of painful relationship experiences in your past. You are able to treat these fears as you'd treat any thought, feeling, or sensation that springs up in meditation. First, recognize your fear, observe it, and welcome it into your awareness. Fear has its highest power when it lurks in your subconscious. Become cognizant of your fear and accept it. Don‘t be afraid of it. Note it without reacting to it. This starts to take the emotional edge off of it. Second, consciously release your fear. Make a decision that you will not give it any more time, energy, or care. Third, return to centering on your conscious intent to establish an intimate relationship. Center on the feeling of open, honest communication that you want and bring that into the moment. Be that. Act in that way. Most individuals find that progress in meditation, as well as progress in keeping focus in life, conforms to stages over time. As you practice consistently, you might find that, initially, you become more witting of your thoughts and feelings than ever before. You might not have been so aware of your fears till you began to pay attention to your inner life. It‘s O.K. That‘s natural. Second, you'll start to relate to your thoughts, feelings, and fears differently. You‘ll discover that they come and go. You‘ll learn that as you become witting of them and accept them, they start to lose their hold on your attention. You‘ll be able to expel them more and more easily over time. Finally, you‘ll be able to focus yourself in your chosen point of centre, whether it‘s in deepening a meditative experience or any additional experience that you want in life. Whatever you center on increases. Therefore, your power to consciously focus your attention is the most crucial skill you may master. Meditation is the best way that I know to gain this skill

The fire could start only when the sun's rays were centralized to a small point. When the magnifying glass was moved too far-off or too close to the paper, the rays weren't centered enough and nothing occurred. This experience describes vividly the might of concentration. This power may be described as centered attention. It's the power to direct the attention to one single thought or subject, to the exclusion of everything else. When our brain is centered, our energies are not dissipated on irrelevant activities or thoughts. This is why formulating concentration is crucial to anybody who aspires to take charge of his or her life. This skill is indispensable for every sort of success. Without it, our efforts become scattered, but with it, we may achieve great things. Concentration has a lot of uses and advantages. It helps in studying and understanding faster, betters the memory, and helps in centering on any task, job, action or goal, and accomplishing it more easily and efficiently. It's likewise required for developing psychic abilities, and is a mighty tool for the efficient utilization of creative visualization. When this power is developed, the brain obeys us more readily and doesn't engage in futile, damaging thoughts or worries. We gain mental mastery and we experience true peacefulness. Center This power also plays a crucial role in meditation. Without it, the brain simply jumps restlessly from one thought to a different, not letting us meditate the right way. Do you now recognize, why it's really important and worthwhile to formulate and better the ability to concentrate? To develop this power you have to train and exercise it. Forget all your excuses about not having the time or being too busy. Don't say that the conditions are not appropriate or that you can't find a quiet place to exercise. With a little designing, want and motivation you are able to always find the time to exercise every day, regardless how busy you are. Thoughts claim our attention ceaselessly, and waste our time and energy on insignificant and worthless matters. They really rule our life. We have become so used to this bondage, that we take it for granted, and have become unconscious of this habit, except on particular occasions. While breathing, we don't need to pay attention to every inhalation and exhalation. We get conscious of the procedure of breathing, only if we have some trouble with breathing, such when our nose is clogged, due to a cold, or when we're in an unventilated room. It's the same with thinking. We get conscious of the constant barrage of our thoughts, and of our inability to calm them down, only if we have to concentrate, solve an issue or study. We're likewise acutely aware of them when we have worries or concerns. View the following familiar state of affairs. You have to study something for your job or for an exam. You sit comfortably on the couch with the book in your hands and begin reading. After a while, you feel hungry and go to the kitchen to have something. You come back to read, and then hear inhabit talking outside. You listen to them for many moments and then bring your attention back to the book. After some time you feel restless and turn on the radio to listen to some music. You continue to read for a bit, and then recall something that happened yesterday, and you begin thinking of it. When you view your watch, you're astonished to find out that one complete hour has passed and you've scarcely read anything. This is what occurs when one lacks concentration. Envisage what you could have achieved, if you could control your attention and center your mind! Work that calls for physical strength, like carrying heavy loads for instance, develops physical strength. Yet, it isn't as exercising daily at the gym in a systematic manner. It's the same with concentration. Studying, reading and trying to pay attention to what we do, develop some of this power, but rehearsing exercises diligently daily is something else, it's like training in a gym. In order to formulate this power we have to train our brains. Most individuals believe that concentration is a strenuous and tiring activity, and that it involves effort and tension, which are hard and unpleasant. This notion begins at an early age. Parents and teachers expect youngsters to study, do their homework and get great grades. This brings up in the youngsters a feeling of being forced and coerced to do something they don't like doing. If they're too often told that they're not concentrating well enough, they develop a loathing for concentration, and frequently for studying too. These become associated with coercion, deficiency of freedom, doing something they don't like to do, and which is against their will. When they grow up, it's no wonder that their powers of concentration are weak, and they've no want to strain their minds. Though most individuals acknowledge the fact that great concentration is an excellent asset, yet most of them do nothing to fortify it, because they don't know how, and as they lack the motivation. It's hoped that this will provide the necessary data and motivation. Concentration may be fun, if approached in correctly. It ought to be practiced with joy, positive attitude, optimism, and understanding of its great possibilities. Occasionally you are able to find strong powers of concentration in yourself. When you truly and earnestly wish to excel in your studies, pass a crucial exam or solve an issue, this power becomes available to you. In such instances, it appears because of some need or want, but developing it in an orderly way brings it under your control, and grants you the power to utilize it intentionally, whenever you require it. To do so, you have to rehearse special exercises on a day-to-day basis.

Table Of Contents Forward Chapter 1: Mindfulness Exercises Chapter 2: Words of Spiritual Encouragement Chapter 3: Day-to-Day Affirmation Chapter 4: Communities Chapter 5: Spiritual Cleansing Chapter 6: Spiritual Thinkings Chapter 7: Forgiving Other People Chapter 8: Attitude of Appreciation Wrapping Up Sample Content Preview Chapter 7: Forgiving Other People Synopsis When you comprehend how the power of forgiveness may release you from negative states of affairs, it will become one of your most potent ongoing practices. This includes forgiving other people, situations, and likewise yourself. Let Go Forgiveness is a gift you give to yourself. It is not something you do for somebody else. It is not complicated. It's simple. Merely identify the situation to be forgiven and ask yourself: "Am I willing to squander my energy further on this issue?" If the answer is "No”, then that's it! All is forgiven. Forgiveness is an act of the imagination. It dares you to envisage a greater future, one that's based on the blessed possibility that your anguish won't be the final word on the issue. It challenges you to forfeit your destructive thoughts about the situation and to trust in the possibility of a greater future. It builds up confidence that you may survive the pain and develop from it. Telling somebody is a bonus! It is not essential for forgiveness to start the process that heals the harm. Forgiveness has little or nothing to do with a different individual because forgiveness is an inner matter. Choice is forever present in forgiveness. You don't have to forgive AND there are consequences. Refusing to forgive by holding on to the anger, bitterness and a sense of betrayal may make your own life deplorable. A vindictive mentality produces bitterness and lets the betrayer claim one more victim. There's nothing so bad that can't be forgiven. Nothing! "The weak may never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." Mahatma Gandhi The biggest misconception about forgiveness is the belief that forgiving the offense, like an affair, means that you excuse it. Not true. As a matter of fact, we may only forgive what we understand to be wrong. Forgiveness doesn't mean that you have to reconcile with somebody who poorly treated you. Another misconception is that it depends upon whether the individual who did you wrong apologizes, wants you back, or alters his or her ways. If another person's miserable behavior were the primary determinant for your healing then the cruel and selfish individuals in your life would retain power over you indefinitely. Forgiveness is the experience of discovering peace inside and may neither be compelled nor stopped by another. I trust that to withhold forgiveness is to decide to continue to remain the victim. Remember, you forever have choice. When you forgive, you do it for you, not for the other. The individual you've never forgiven. . . owns you! How about an affair? Simply because you choose to forgive, doesn't mean you have to stay in the relationship. That's only and always your choice. The choice to forgive is only and forever yours. When you feel that forgiveness is essential, don't forgive for "their" sake. Do it for yourself! It would be great if they'd come to you and ask forgiveness but you have to accept the fact that some individuals will never do that. That's their choice. They don't have to be forgiven. They did what they did and that is it - except for the aftermaths, which THEY have to live with. The hurts won't heal until you forgive! Recovery from wrongful conduct that produces genuine forgiveness takes time. For a few, it might take years. Don't rush it. Constantly reliving your hurt feelings gives the individual who caused you pain power over you. Rather than mentally replaying your hurt, it helps to center your energy on the healing, not the hurt! Compassion is among the key ingredients of forgiveness. Learn to seek and appreciate the love, beauty and kindness around you. It's there, and you might have to alter your thinking and behavior to discover it. To have compassion for other people, you have to first have compassion for yourself. Fit relationships are not possible without forgiveness! You can't have a loving and rewarding relationship with anybody else, much less yourself, if you continue to hold on to things that occurred in the past. Regardless of the situation, making peace with past love partners, your parents, youngsters, your boss or anybody who you think might have "done you wrong" is the only way to better your chances of a "healthy" relationship with yourself or anybody else for that matter! It isn't possible to truly be present and available to a fresh relationship till you heal the hurt and upsets of the past. Forgiving somebody else is to agree inside yourself to overlook the wrong they've committed against you and to move on with your life. It's the only way. It entails cutting them some slack. "What?" you say! "Cut them some slack after what THEY did to me? Never!" Let go! March on! Non-forgiveness keeps you in the battle. Being willing to forgive may bring a sense of peace and well-being. It lifts anxiousness and delivers you from depression. It may enhance your self-regard and give you hope. Forgiveness is a journey. You might never forget AND you may decide to forgive. You may forgive and tomorrow you might feel the pain all over once again. As life goes on and you decide to remember and feel the pain, then is the time to over again remember that you've already forgiven. Mentally forgive again if necessary, then move onward. When we allow it, time may dull the vividness of the memory of the hurt; the memory will finally fade. Always remember that you're human. Occasionally individuals do and say hurtful things. It's crucial to center on what you've done to learn from the experience. Forgiveness is a creative act that changes us from captives of the past to liberated individuals at peace with our memories. It isn’t forgetfulness, but it demands accepting the promise that the future may be more than dwelling on memories of past harm. There's no future in the past. You may never live in the present and produce a new and exciting future for yourself if you always stay stuck in the past. Start again! It's truly impossible to begin new and to make clear, healthy, life giving choices till we have let go of past injuries, confusion and resentments. Old injuries have a drawing power and pull our attention to them over and over, claiming energy and hope from us, preventing us from beginning again. Old wounds raise awful specters of the same thing occurring again in the future. For this reason, it is so crucial to spend time understanding the true nature of forgiveness, and what it truly entails. To forgive means to "give up", to release. It likewise means to restore oneself to basic goodness and health. Once we forgive, we're willing to forfeit resentment, revenge and obsession. We're willing to reconstruct faith not only in ourselves, but in life itself. The inability or unwillingness to do this, causes damage in the one who's holding onto the anger. If you're at war with other people, you can't be at peace with yourself. You may let go. . . and forgive! It takes no strength to release. . . only bravery. Life either expands or contracts in direct proportion to your bravery to forgive. Your decision to forgive or not to forgive either moves you closer to what you want or further away from it. There's no middle ground. Change is constant. Want peacefulness? Forgive. The same power you utilize to hold on (to not forgive), is the same power you need to produce a fresh and exciting life. Forgiveness is the most crucial single process that brings peace to our soul and harmony to our life. All of us, at some point in our lives, have been injured and wounded by the actions or words of another. Occasionally the grievances have been so capital we thought, "no way, this I can't forgive!" Resentment and hostility may run so deep that forgiveness becomes really hard. We believe we have a right to our outrage! But, living from resentment takes such effort. It produces an enormous void in and around us. All the toxic feelings of hate and bitterness remain suppressed inside and eventually seep into all the areas of our life with the result that we get bitter, angry, distressed and frustrated. And so, living from forgiveness becomes an essential. Not that this is simple; it isn't. But we can't keep ourselves in the flow of good if we hold some other in un-forgiveness. Forgiveness isn't something we have to do, but something we must leave flow through us. When we step away from the awareness of our human nature, and allow the divine or the higher powers grace to express through us, to forgive through us, we may at that point, feel the beaming and warm rays of the flow of divine love breaking up all hurt, all resentment, all sense of injustice. We get aware that we're free and we may project that love outward into our world.

Quite an important reason to gorge on these delightful berries on a daily basis then! Round Gobs of Good Health Blueberries are delightful foods. Whether young or old, they are sure to put a smile across anyone’s face. They have a pretty shape and color and once you lay your eyes on them, you cannot resist nibbling on them. They have been in use in several traditional recipes—who can forget the delectable bites of blueberry muffins, blueberry shortcakes and blueberry pies—in the western parts of the world for centuries, but it is only lately that significant body of research has shown that these berries have a vast amount of health benefits as well. Quite understandably, people have been looking at these berries with a whole new interest. Most ‘berry’ lists rank blueberries as the second most popular berries in the world, after strawberries. It is the official berry of the Nova Scotia region in Canada. The blueberry muffin is the official muffin of Minnesota. It has been widely pictured in the media and has been the cynosure of a lot of literature attention as well. Let us take a closer look at these celebrity berries. Blueberries—What Are They? This berry, which derives its name due to its color, actually has a very well deserved name. The berry is actually lusciously blue at one stage in its life, though not throughout. It is pale green when it first appears, then goes through a whole gamut of colors from reddish purple to indigo. It is indigo blue during the peak of its ripened life, and this is when it is at its tasteful and healthful best as well. The shape of the blueberry is also unique. It is completely round, with a crown at its open end. This gives it a five-point symmetry. Added to that, the berries grow in clusters. Since all the berries in a cluster won’t ripen at the same time, you will usually find berries of different colors hanging in the same cluster at any given moment. This adds to their appeal. Biologically, the blueberry belongs to the genus Vaccinium, which makes it a cousin of bilberries and cranberries, which also belong to the same genus. Though there are several kinds of blueberries, some even inedible, it is the species that belong to the section Cyanococcus that are the ones that are usually found in the market. Blueberries—Traditional Roots Blueberries are traditional fruits of the western part of the world, most notably North America, along with some countries in Europe and Asia as well. They have always been used in preparing several items of usual cuisine in these local areas. America especially has had a great cultural association with blueberries and so have countries like England and France in Europe. Several characteristic recipes of these regions include blueberry in them. North America is the largest producer of blueberries in the world. Blueberries—Health Benefits Blueberries are blue because of their very high anthocyanin content. This makes it a good antioxidant, and a capable fighter of the various free radical mechanisms that threaten to slow down the metabolic rate of the body. Regular consumption of these berries can have a great effect on improving health. However, just like any other health food, the blueberry cannot do anything by itself. It needs to be well substantiated by a healthy diet, a healthy lifestyle and a good amount of exercise. The blueberry is laden with several minerals apart from its high antioxidant content. This makes it a good solution for digestive ill health. Minerals such as sodium and copper make it a berry worth considering for people who suffer from digestive problems. Also, the berry has a significant amount of fiber content. This makes it a good solution for people who are prone to constipation. The blueberry is also a treasure-house of all the important vitamins in the body that provide a protective function, such as vitamins A, B complex, C and E. Due to this, a regular diet of blueberries acts as an immunity shot. People who consume blueberries often are less liable to fall sick often. Recently, there has been talk about blueberries acting as an anti-aging agent. This benefit of the blueberry, which is still being medically and scientifically looked into, is because of the fact that the berry has antioxidants that can eliminate destructive free radicals from the body. Another important ingredient that causes this benefit is vitamin C. Several mental health benefits are also derived by the regular consumption of blueberries. It improves brain health and a person’s thinking capabilities. It also helps prevent any potential brain disorders. The berries may also be effective in improving a person’s motor and sensory responses, and building their attention spans, concentration and general alertness. Blueberries are also known for improving visual health. This is because of the high amount of vitamin A in it in the form of its precursor, beta-carotene. Even visual defects such as short-sightedness (myopia), long-sightedness (hypermetropia) and cataract can be somewhat assayed by the regular consumption of blueberries. One of the unique benefits of blueberries is the prevention of urinary tract infection. It does this by eliminating the action of Escherichia coli that cause this infection. An immediate effect of blueberries is in reducing the infection symptoms and inhibition of any proliferation of E. coli. Recently, following trends with other popular berries, blueberries are also considered a potential cure for cancer. Certain anthocyanins present in it are presumed to have anti-carcinogenic properties. These presumptions are being tested for medical verification. If found true, blueberries could be an efficient ally in the prevention and treatment of colon and liver cancer. Blueberries—Where to Get Them You will find no difficulty at all in finding blueberries in most parts of the world, especially in North America and throughout Europe and even some parts of Asia. The abundance of these berries also makes them one of the cheapest berries in the world.

This is normal and there are some very effective ways to add spice to your workouts. Try these simple but effective ideas. 1. Change Your Exercise Routines Regularly Do not allow yourself to get bored. This is preventative action and it is essential for your health that boredom does not stop you from continuing with exercise. Research and find free ideas online. There are many free podcasts and downloadable routines that you can put on to a personal device that will enable you to vary your at-home routines regularly. This has a double advantage in that it provides challenge to your body and works different muscle groups in different ways regularly. 2. Seek the Help of a Personal Trainer at the Gym or Privately If you have never used a Trainer to help you exercise, consider booking a session or a series of sessions with a Trainer to seek help creating new programs. You can follow these programs independent of the Trainer, but this enables you to have expert help in setting yourself a challenge that is safe and will be effective. One size does not fit all when it comes to exercise routines and thought there are plenty of resources available free, for added benefit, the Trainer will provide you with a personalized approach helping you select the best exercise routines for your specific requirements. 3. Change Music on Your iPod Regularly and Think about Adding Audio Books If you are finding it difficult to squeeze time in for your work outs, chances are you are also finding it a challenge to take time to read a book or watch your favorite television show. Audio Books and Pod casts are a great way to “read a novel” whilst you work out or catch up on the latest episode of a television show you missed that is available on podcast. 4. Look Outside the Box for Exercise Options Gyms, home workouts and exercise DVDs are all great options for working out. However, there are so many ways to work out that combine socialization and fun with serious workouts. Consider dance lessons with a spouse, or join a kickboxing class. If you enjoy swimming, consider a water aerobics class. Remember back to your favorite child hood sport and look for a local sporting group that is looking for team members. This socializing aspect could be just what you need to increase the interest and fun in your workouts. 5. Join a Walking Group or Outdoor Hiking Group Whether or not walking has been part of your regular exercise routine, consider joining a serious walking group or hiking group. Both of these activities will provide fun, challenge and difficulty to your walking walkouts. Why not join with your spouse and enjoy the workouts together. 6. Buy the Right Gear This matters for a lot of people as well. When you are planning to start with an exercise program, go shopping. Buy a nice sweatshirt and a pair of gym shorts that you will find comfortable to work out in, and will enjoy to wear as well. Get a very nice pair of shoes, because these will really be necessary. Probably get a watch with a timer or an iPod if you do not have one already. Get a sipper where you can store water or other fluids to keep you hydrated when you are exercising. These things are good for you; they put you in the groove of exercising. Keep changing these things often too. Do that even if you are working out at home. The whole feeling of getting into your ‘workout’ clothes will mean a lot and it will make your workouts all the more exciting. 7. Go Out in the Mornings If your workday mostly begins in the midmorning, then probably you are missing out on all the beautiful sights of the early morning. You don’t get to see how the world transform when night changes into day, when the sun is just rising. All this could be exciting for you. From tomorrow, plan a new routine. Set your alarm clock to wake you up early in the morning, before the sun rises, and head out into the park. You will feel a whole new energy surging within you. You will automatically exercise so much more. If you do this for a week, it will become a habit and you won’t want to break it. 8. Set a Goal A lot of people work out much better if they have the right motivation. Maybe that is what is lacking with you as well. You may try to set a goal for yourself. It does not need to be a lofty incentive; something small and easily attainable can do. If you have excessive body weight, then maybe you could buy a pair of expensive jeans that is slightly smaller than what you wear right now. Buy the sexiest pair that you can get, and hang it prominently in your wardrobe. Every day, your motivation will be get into those jeans. You will work out harder just because of that—try this out if you do not believe it, and make sure you buy the most expensive pair of jeans you can find!—and very soon you will find that you are actually able to fit into those jeans! Here is a tip you should know about. Psychologists speak about the extreme flexibility of our body as well as our mind. These are not rigid. We can tune them into different ways, into ways that we want them to behave. Especially, if we do something repeatedly, they are embossed into our mind and then that thing becomes a habit. We need to realize this tendency of our body and use it to build constructive habits in it all the time. For example, if you go out for a jog early in the morning for a few days at a stretch, then it will soon become a habit that you will not be able to shake out of. This could become a habit for life, and you can see how constructive that habit could be. Maybe you need to plan your life out that way. For most exercising habits, 3 weeks is ample time. If you do something repeatedly over a period of 3 weeks—or give it a month if you want to make sure—then you will be able to convert it into a habit, and then you won’t be able to break out of that habit! Try it out… this is something that really needs to be tried out.

Synopsis When we sleep, we surrender ourselves to a parallel universe. We do not control ourselves when we sleep. We submit ourselves to our surroundings, to the people around us, to our environments. And then we dream. Dreams are an enigmatic area of study even today. No one knows for sure why we dream and what these dreams mean, if anything at all. We do not know for sure why we get pleasant dreams sometimes and nightmares some other times. There is also no reason (none that we know of) for why we get dreams on some nights and don’t on some others. Sleep experts conjecture that we dream all the time—as soon as we go into the sleep mode—but we do not remember most of these dreams when we wake up. So, why do some dreams leave an impression on our minds, enough for us to remember them when we wake them, and some are forgotten altogether? There are other problems as well. People do not have the same kind of sleeping habits. Some people sleep fitfully, while others sleep with complete abandon. Any single person won’t sleep in the same manner every night. Our sleep is as varied as it can be, only we do not realize it most of the time because when we sleep, we are completely in a transcendental stage, an altogether different world. Why do some people wake up shrieking in the middle of the night, bathed in cold sweat? Why do some people smile when they are sleeping? Why do some people toss restlessly when they are sleeping? Why do some people walk in their sleep? These are all mysteries that modern science still does not have concrete answers for. We do not know why these things happen. We do not have any rational answers for why these kinds of things happen to one person and do not happen to another. We shall be taking a closer look at such problems in this chapter. I Had This Awesome Dream Last Night! Most people spend about 2 hours a night dreaming, although for many of us remembering a dream may be unusual. Why we dream is still the subject of many studies and research projects, however, over the past 30 years research has helped us understand a great deal about dreams and the place of dreaming in our waking and sleeping cycle. Until recently it was thought that sleep caused all bodily functions to sleep and to rest. Today it is known that far from being a rest time, much of the normal body functions continue as we sleep. This includes our brains, which continue to be active throughout the night. When we sleep we pass through five stages of sleep, the last one of these stages is called “REM” or Random Eye Movement sleep that is characterized by rapid eye movements and our heart and breath rate rises, our blood pressure rises and this is the stage that we have dreams. Throughout the night, our sleep cycles through these five stages. The first two are light sleep stages, and the third and fourth stages are typically the sleep we refer to as “deep sleep”. The fifth stage is the REM sleep. As the night progresses, the period of REM sleep increases and the period of deep sleep decreases. People, particularly children who are woken or disturbed during deep sleep will often hallucinate and experience night terrors or nightmares. Different nerve cells in the brain (known as neurotransmitters) carry the signal to move from stage to stage in the sleep cycles. The messages they carry can be affected by the things we eat and drink, and by such external stimuli as light and noise and for those who smoke, nicotine addiction. These affect the amount of time we spend in REM and it is known that we need the REM sleep for healthy living. When deprived of REM sleep, laboratory rats died very quickly. People, who are sleep deprived as a form of torture, will also have less REM sleep. REM sleep is essential for optimal memory and brain function. Lack of REM sleep leaves us feeling tired and lethargic throughout the day. It impairs our memory and our judgment and affects our mood. The person who does not have chronic insomnia, will usually require extra “catch up” sleep, after experiencing consecutive days with reduced sleep. The important factor in ensuring you get enough sleep is to recognize and accept the importance of sleep. Your body relies on sleep to function properly and depriving it of sleep to get things done, will actually have the reverse effect. To achieve the “to do” list effectively and safely, you must sleep. Accept that your physical and mental wellbeing depends on your having the right amount of sleep at night and do your best to set up your life routines to accommodate adequate time to sleep the recommended hours for your age group.

Chapter 2: Factors that Create Stress Chapter 3: Signals that Tell You Are Stressed Chapter 4: Stress Can Be Worked Out Chapter 5: Tips to Work Stress Out from Your Life Chapter 6: Dealing with Stress at Work Chapter 7: Dealing with Stress in Relationships Wrapping Up Sample Content Preview Chapter 6: Dealing with Stress at Work Synopsis 7 in 10 people who have jobs claim that their work is causing them stress. This may be your situation as well. Maybe your job is what is giving you something more than just your livelihood… it is also giving you the stress to live with. If this is happening, you are not alone. But at the same time, there are things you can do in order to combat workplace stress. All of these things are quite doable. It is all in planning the right way and avoiding the negatives. Dealing with Stress at Work Workplace stress is one of the most common forms of stress. In today’s times, it is very difficult not to carry some work back home. People are usually inundated with work, and that causes a great deal of stress to them. In order to cope with your workplace stress, you need to first accept that your job is the cause of your stress. It is only when you come out of your denial can you overcome this form of stress; something that is true for every kind of stress that you might face. Here are some tips you can use to deal with stress at the workplace. 1. Take only as much work as you can do. For a lot of people, the stress is because they take up a lot of work, work that they cannot do. Promotions and incentives notwithstanding, the one thing that is very important to you is your health. You should know what your limit is, and then you should work within that limit. This is a very important point. If you just give your nod to work that you can realistically do, then you will be much happier about your job. 2. Accept work with realistic and practicable deadlines only. Many people accept work with difficult deadlines just because of the lure of money or because of the fear of losing a client. But, if you are good at your work, you can always ask for more time to do your work. No work needs to be unrealistically chased. At least, not at the cost of your health. When you take up work that you can easily do, then you are not only preventing stress from sapping your innards, but you are also able to provide better quality work to your clients. 3. Learn to say no. Most people cannot do that. Workplace stress actually stems from the fact that people don’t know how to say no. When you cannot refuse, you end up taking things you cannot do. You take more work than you can handle, you accept unrealistic deadlines, you agree to help out your friends with things that they are supposed to do, you agree to do tasks for the company which you need not (such as organizing parties) and so on. There is no harm in doing all of this if you are capable of doing it. But, most people do not have that kind of powerhouse capacity. If you have to take up a lot of work and eventually it is going to cause you an immense deal of stress, then it is certainly not worth creating that impression of the ‘guy or gal who can do it all’. 4. Manage your time. This is one of the most important things that anyone should learn, whether they have a job or not. When you are in a job, this becomes all the more important. When you learn how to manage your time, then you are able to fulfill your tasks in a much better way, with enough time left over for fun and recreation as well. 5. You have to absolutely learn how to prioritize things. This is extremely important. When you are able to fulfill tasks according to their order of importance, then you find the situation much easier to handle. One way of prioritizing things is by deciding which of your tasks can help the faster accomplishment of another task. If there is a particular task that should be done earlier so that the next task becomes easier, then follow that logical order. 6. Learn about new technologies all the time. You will be amazed to see the kind of progress that technology is making right now. This is the world of automation; there is a simple software solution for almost anything. Keep updated. There are chances that you could use some new technological solution to make your job easier. At the same time, when you are better informed, you simply know how to get your job done faster. 7. Trust in your team. So many people build up a great deal of workplace stress just because they do not believe in the people around them. Give them their due importance. You should know that these people have also been employed by the same organization that has employed you, so you need to have at least some amount of faith in their judgment. If there is some task that someone else should do, let them do it. Do not insist on taking it up just because you feel you can do a better job. The whole thing could actually backfire. You may not be able to finish that and your work would be left in limbo as well. 8. Keep time for your family and friends. Never immerse yourself in your work. Always remember that you are working for your family and yourself. Hence, give them due importance. Refrain from working on holidays and the weekends. Spend time with the family. Go out with your friends whenever you can. All these things really matter because they take your mind off work. When you revisit your work after such brief sojourns, you find that you can attack it with renewed vigor. 9. Live a healthy lifestyle. Take care of your health. Go for a jog early morning, or at least get a treadmill. Leave only after having a healthy breakfast. Learning a good meditation technique such as Yoga is also not a bad idea. Do not drink and smoke just because you are stressed at work. These can only give you a temporary boost. When their effect wears off, you will be feeling more despondent than ever. Avoid calorie-rich junk foods and pile up on those veggies instead. Have fresh fruit juice instead of coffee at work. Sip water throughout the day; it helps keep your metabolism in a good working condition. 10. Celebrate when you should, and don’t just celebrate with your work people. If you have achieved some kind of victory at work, treat your family and friends. This gives you a sense of self-satisfaction. When you see your near and dear ones sharing in your victory, you feel that your achievement is not in vain. This also acts as a great motivating factor and you are able to tackle your next job with better enthusiasm. Keep these points in mind. Workplace stress is sapping everyone’s mind at the moment, but you need to keep this demon away. Like with every other kind of stress, you should learn how to use the influence of stressors on your mind to bring about creative solutions. Do that, and workplace stress will become history for you!

This is one of the examples of promoter/controller. This chapter talks about: The Attributes of the Promoter/Controller Personality A Promoter/Controller’s Strengths A Promoter/Controller’s Weaknesses How to Deal With a Promoter/Controller? Imagine if you are pretty successful in what you do and the world out there knows exactly how successful you are. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? The Attributes of the Promoter/Controller Personality A person with promoter/controller personality is normally expressive in an aggressive way. Unlike promoter/supporter, relationships may not matter to them but success and sense of achievement can be a really big thing to them. Now, a controller may be achieving great success but still remains a low profile. I personally know a person who has been declared bankruptcy and yet he owns a company that makes millions of dollars in profit yearly. On the other hand, promoter/controller can be achieving great success at the same time, but the fact that he is rich and successful is made known to all over the world. This group of people love challenges and always strives to win. Not just to win, but to win with flying colors. It is not quite common for them to stay in the same position for long. They need to jump from one place to another. Stagnancy will just bore them and they chase their goals and dreams with intensity. In terms of conversations, they are the ones who dominate. People listen to them the moment they speak and their voices turn out to be clearly visible. In addition, speeches that they make will usually carry much weight. A Promoter/Controller’s Strengths Absolutely No Problems with Unfamiliarity: A promoter/controller will have no problems with unfamiliarity. Even they are new to the environment, their promoter nature will just help them to get along with people very well. When it comes to something new, there is no such word as ‘uncomfortable’ in their dictionaries. With their controller personality, they are able to see their goals bigger than anything else that is on their ways. Independent: You may find it strange but a promoter/controller is extremely independent. Many people work for the sake of their families. Some work for some other purposes. Promoters/controllers work for their own sake. Their strong will and power strive them to constantly stay at the top notch in what they are doing. Decisive: While a pure promoter may not be decisive, a promoter/controller is expert in decision making. Not only they are fast but they are also accurate in relation to their judgment. A Promoter/Controller’s Weaknesses Profile May Result in Threats: When your success has been made known to the public by own luxurious cars, a valley and a yacht, the tendency of you being threatened is much higher. Some of the unethical competitors or peers are going to eat you up without your acknowledge. They do not rejoice in seeing you succeed but stumble and fall. I am not saying you cannot buy luxurious cars, a valley or yacht but you just need to be careful because there are people out there who love to see you fail. No Space for Others: Very often, promoters/controllers are the ones who do most of the talking. Hence, it leaves no space for their peers to express their suggestions and opinions. They probably need to learn to allow others to access to their lives or discussions. Lack of Patience: You just can’t help it but promoters/controllers act very quickly that they want to get things done quickly even sometimes without the need of gathering the complete resources. Produce Stressful Subordinates: Sometimes, their subordinates or staffs will have hard time working with the promoters/controllers simply because of their fast moving nature. As a result, staffs are dying to meet deadlines and work under intensive pressures. How to Deal With a Promoter/Controller? Probably by now, you would not want to work under a boss who has a promoter/controller personality. Or perhaps, you want to be a promoter/controller. Either way is totally fine. Here is how you can deal with them… Contribute Ideas Based on Their Interests: If you are given a chance to contribute ideas to a promoter/controller, you must do it right. Not to mention you do not get many chances to speak to them, things that you say to them must contribute to help them achieve their goals and dreams. Esteem Their Success: Yes, promoters/controllers can be very egoistic at times. One thing you can do to make them happy if to esteem their success. Celebrate their success and tell them that they have done a good job. If the compliment if given in front of a big crowd, it is even better. The surely want to be recognized of their success. Involve Them to Work in Groups: If it is possible, try to get them to work in groups. Their pace of working may not be pleasant while working with the rest of the group members, but it is a good way to allow them to learn to journey together with the team, rather than just having to walk alone. In short, promoters/controllers are the ones who get things done effectively with the intention of being recognized for their achievements. When you understand this, you know why they behave in such a way. Chapter 7: Understanding The Controller/Analyzer Personality Synopsis It is truly a combination of both controller and analyzer personalities. This kind of personality appears to be distant and people find it hard to gain access to their lives. This chapter talks about: The Attributes of the Controller/Analyzer Personality A Controller/Analyzer’s Strengths A Controller/Analyzer’s Weaknesses How to Deal With a Controller/Analyzer? Let’s get acquainted with the controller/analyzers so that you can gain easier access to their lives. The Attributes of the Controller/Analyzer Personality The first thing that comes to my mind in relation to the controller/analyzer personality is this – they are stiff! I am not sure if it is the right word to describe them but to me, they are probably the last person on earth I would want to hang out with. Unless it is required, there will be no way I’d want to meet them. Anyway, let’s talk about the controllers/analyzers. They are efficient and business-minded. Apart from getting desired results, they are also keen in gathering information. Even sometimes the implementation of the plan may take much longer than required, nevertheless the probability of the success is almost guaranteed. This group of people is not so good in placing their trusts on others. They can be very critical and judgmental to the point that they only place their trusts on the people who have been working effectively for them in the past. Any first timers will have to perform extremely well in order to gain the initial favor of the controllers/analyzers. Needless to say, they are very task-oriented. They are not driven by emotions and often very rational when it comes to making decisions. They are calm and steady even the biggest obstacles set in. No matter what, they will get it done. Finally, it is normal to them so scan through the situation or a person who is in front of them. They will generate all kinds of perceptions, data and judgment on the situations and person, causing the person especially to panic easily. A Controller/Analyzer’s Strengths Tasks Are Organized: You just can’t go wrong under the supervision of the controllers/analyzers. Their tasks are organized in a very systematic manner. They know exactly what and where went wrong when any part of the planning process fails. Seen as Honored: Controllers/Analyzers earn their respects due to their experiences and abilities to solve complicated problems. They can be very good advisors and rationality always go with them in things that they do. Results Are Almost Certain: With the information controllers/analyzers gather, it is almost certain they will produce excellent results. These are the people who are highly demanded in the business industries. A Controller/Analyzer’s Weaknesses Avoid Working With Others: While it is impossible to get things done all by themselves, they are very critical with the people they choose to work with. Unless you have already shown your efficiency in the past, it is really hard for them to involve you as a part of their team. Not People-Oriented: Relationships with others do not mean a lot to them and hence, lack passionate and understanding. They may think it is okay to spend the weekend in the office and at the same time, their staffs may think weekend is the only time they can spend with their family members. Appear Distant: Most of the time, they are seen distant and isolated from the crowd. The topics in their conversation are nothing more than the tasks and data. Talking about the weather or how well your children are doing at schools will not interest them all at. Also, some people find them difficult to relate. Judgmental: Due to their analytical nature, they can be very judgmental even if they do not know you too well. However, time may have the potential to reveal the person’s character further.
