ReviewReview

Our first meeting was about individual stress and the way we move in and out of stressed states of mind: Experience is created from the inside-out. Stress is a moment-to-moment experience generated by

the nature and quality of our thinking. As our thinking changes, our changing states of mind

define our behavioral options (other people, situations, and our own potential look different to us in different states of mind).

If you haven’t done the reading from the first session, the material can be downloaded from your web-site.

What we do to get temporary relief from upsetting thinking always has consequences.

When our minds are not free and clear, we make mistakes with the best of intentions.

Mind quiets. Attachment to insecure thought content

disappears. Insight and common sense return. We have good judgment and make good

choices. We feel awake, alive and present. Our body’s healing potential revives.
