Here’s Looking at You Babe–Happy Pill

Personally, I’m not good at handling stress. I stay focused on the goal and ignore much of what might be happening to me as I work to achieve it. Then some physical something will happen and I wake up to my feelings. These have ranged from Irritable Bowel Syndrome to momentary blindness-causing spots (usually attributed to Type A 40 year old men).

I’m posting Dr. Nancy’s article on biofeedback up on my bulletin board, along with other quotes and messages I want to have handy when I need them. This simple method of using imagery to calm ourselves is a terrific way to relax and become present.

I tried it myself. If you don’t already have a discipline you can easily follow to stop the chattering voice of stress that’s driving you to destruction and possible physical ailment, try this one. It’s easy to follow, because Dr. Nancy uses the natural abilities we’ve developed from the time we were infants before we ever heard of stress.

“Here’s Looking At You Babe…” works better than any “happy pill” I could take
