Eliminate Stress Part 2

But you are not here now. You are here now obviously as you are reading this :-) What I mean is when your stressed you are not here now, you are either in the future or in the past. Here now is the only place where you are free from stress. So if you want to be free of stress then there is a simple technique which you must apply to remain here now.
1. Accept what is

Whatever has happened, whatever you have brought into your life, and whatever you think you haven’t, have all happened. The past cannot be changed, so you just simply accept what is.

In doing this you are removing the strength of anything the past can do to you. The past can only harm you of course if you allow it to. If you do not allow it to then it can do you no harm at all. So accept what is, as it cannot be changed.

 2. Surrender to whatever is going to happen

This is you accepting that whatever will happen will work out for the best for you… Even if it looks like it will be bad at the time. We’ve all had things happen which felt bad at the time and then turned out to be the best thing.

Well just accept that things will always work out for the best.

This doesn’t mean you cannot work diligently towards preventing what you don’t want to happen. It just means that if it does happen then you will accept it then. Until it does, you will do all you can to avoid it but you are just not emotionally attached to it. Attachment causes stress.

This way it enables you to surrender to it and it frees you from the stress you created.

 3. Just be where you are

Live now, recognise that you are the creator of your stress, so simply decide that you will live now in this moment and do all you can to do all you are doing… However, you are just choosing to no longer be stressed by it.

When you notice stress building up in the future, all you have to do is simply notice it and remember you are allowing it to build up in your absence of presence.

This is the power of awareness. As you become aware, you gain control because you noticed that you are the creator of your stress. Then by accepting what is, you can master it and no longer allow stress into your life.

It will come in, we are busy after all, but just notice it, accept it is there and now needs to be let go of. There is nothing to control, you merely have to let go of it.

As you do this you will hear your mind fighting with you. Listen to the insanity of it wanting to find ways to get you to hang on to your stress…

These moments are precious, as you for the first time are getting to see the controller of your life and how it has manipulated you into thinking that you didn’t bring about your stress. And how it wasn’t your fault that you are now stressed.

But it is your fault, you were absent and so you allowed the controller of your mind to bring in something which made your life a lot harder… The secret to removing the stress, as well as the controller, is to accept what is and to start to notice its actions.

These are the cause of the nasty things in your life and it is bugs in your mind. But if you remember to apply those 3 magic words (accept what is) then you will be a lot less stressed for the rest of your life.
