Stress Reduction

Feeling stressed out?  Try this.....




     Picture yourself near a stream.
     Birds are softly chirping in the crisp cool mountain air.
     Nothing can bother you here.
     No one knows this secret place.
     You are in total seclusion from that place
     called "the world."
     The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a
     cascade of serenity.
     The water is clear.
     You can easily make out the face of the person whose head you are
     holding under the water.
     Look.  It's the person who caused you all this stress in the first
     place.  What a pleasant surprise.  You let them up just for a quick
     breath.....then plop!.....back under they go.
     You allow yourself as many deep breaths as you want.
