Stress
A stress-free mind is the birthright of everyone
Stress impacts the way we think, feel and behave, thus affecting all aspects of our lives. The consequences of letting stress rule are nothing short of disastrous and tragic. Yet it seems so hard for people to let go of it. Intellectually, you know, “Oh, I shouldn't be upset, I shouldn't be annoyed. I shouldn't lose my temper.” But in practical life, it doesn't translate into reality. When that moment comes, when the negativity comes like a flood, it just overpowers you and throws you off balance.
Nobody - neither at home nor at school has taught us how to deal with it. This is where Sudarshan Kriya helps in a great way. It helps you overcome the flood of emotions. It is like a mechanism within you - automatically there is a wall within you that functions to help you overcome negative emotions much easier.
Hidden Truths About Stress
What is the secret to riding a bicycle? Balance! It is about staying at the center: not letting it fall to the right or left. When it's falling on one side, you bring it to balance. When you go out of balance, you feel the pinch. Listen to that. Don't just ignore it, acknowledge it and come to the center.
Root of Negativity
Have you ever wondered how a negative thought arises? If you attend to the source of negative thoughts, you will realize that they come because of tension and stress. A relaxed, happy person will not get negative thoughts. The more miserable one is, the more negative thoughts come.
Not Motivating
Tension or stress is not the main motivating factor for people to do more or to do anything creative. Usually, people say necessity is the mother of invention. But in the last 40 years, no major invention has come out of Afghanistan or Lebanon or Beirut, which have been under huge tension and stress.
Hanging onto Small Things
Stress is when your mind is not open to the vastness, it is bent on small little things, insignificant things anyway, they all change and you hold on to those which are changing all the time and then get worked up.

What is Stress?
Stress is when there's too much to do, too little time & no energy left. Either you reduce the workload, which doesn't happen in the days, or you increase the time. That also doesn't happen when you are tired. You want to take more time for yourself to recuperate. So the only visible option we are left with is to increase your energy level.
