Living Life With Less Stress
August 21, 2007 at 9:29 pm | In Stress Release |Is it a crazy notion that there is more to life than the hectic busy-ness, recurrent melancholy and rampant stress that is a constant in most modern lives? What more could there be, you ask? How about ease, joy, freedom, to name a few. I can hear the chorus now, those nay-sayers chanting, “but those things are just plain lazy!” No, they are our divine birthright, and the reason they feel so good when you’re in them is the indication that you are headed in the healthy, loving, ecstatic direction!
Life is meant to be lived to the fullest. We come in bursting with dreams, creativity and endless playfulness, and this comes all so easily. Remember when you were a child, running from wonderful thing to wonderful thing. Like in a giant amusement park, we ran (not walked!) to the next fun and exciting ride. Our curiosity in constant overdrive, delighting in all things, both small and large. It was easy to have such excitement since everything was so new. When we remember these beginnings, we can see through new eyes today, here and now, and let the ease of life back in.
Joy is the meaning of life, plain and simple. We are here to find our joy — all-ways! Joseph Campbell said, “follow your bliss,” meaning to follow that which brings you joy. You may have heard from many modern day psychologists that when you find work that you love, not only do you have more potential for earning more money, you also have the best chance at being truly happy in life. Pain and suffering are truly only in existence to help us realize what is REALLY important to us, and help us to move in a more healing and joyful direction. If the stove is hot, you move away from it, you don’t take some pain medication to numb yourself and then put your hand on it! Joy is making a realization (a KNOWING) that you deserve something better and then moving toward it enthusiastically.
Freedom is the basis for all like everywhere. We are truly free — no matter what — at all times. Children know this innately, and then adults attempt to beat it out of them. You could be locked up, the key thrown away, but you always have YOU: your mind, your thoughts, your feelings, your vibration. You constantly have a choice. You can choose to see things in a negative way, or you can choose to see things in a better way. It’s the famous “glass half full, or half empty” analogy. How you perceive the world and events in it is completely up to you. You are truly free, and once you realize that fact, you can change your world with the lightening speed of thought.
Embrace your easy, joyful, and free spirit! The more you do, the less stressful your life becomes, the more the universe opens up to you (because you are open to the universe). Your job is to look for what is fun to you — that is the key. When you find what is fun, you can’t help but relax and enjoy the moment. You are powerful beyond measure, and I hope that you know that everything always works out for the best.
