As a holistic life coach and counselor, stress is the nucleus of the majority of the calls I receive: stressful conditions of life, health, work, and all types of relationships including partnerships, family, finances, work-related issues, and the extremely restless state of affairs of our country, as well as the world.

There is no question that stress paralyzes the mind, the body, and the spirit, and when it is severe and unrelenting, little by little it wears us down if we do not have healthy coping skills. Negative feelings of fear, anxiety, worry, guilt, resentment, shame, self-doubt, and even self-loathing, can be triggered under stressful conditions, and over time they have the power to program our physical body to destructively turn on itself, cell by cell until eventually it literally breaks down, even die.  It may take years to get the job done, but once we hit the start button, it is a go and is only a matter of time.

Let me ask: when you find yourself feeling consumed and overwhelmed by stress, what are you doing to give yourself a break from the worrisome internal pressures and feelings of helplessness.? Well, I have the way to clear the mind of fret and worries and feel the relief of inner peace. It can be done. Come join me.
