So let’s PAUSE and see what is really going on.

1. First, download your Stress Beaker PDF: https://gallery.mailchimp.com/7f134c1b5f115aa1fa56a3c81/files/93aa1910-2d39-41e6-b79a-9b5bbf361c75/stress_beaker.pdf

2. Start filling it up with all your stressors. You might first of all think of all the external stressors in your life. For example your family, cultural pressure, deadlines, work, bosses, financial challenges, renovations, car repairs you name it.

3. Work out what percentage of your Stress Beaker they take up.

4. Next, write down all your internal ones; it might be an injury, oral health, your gums, your sore tooth, your hair falling out, any symptom you have, lack of energy, stool health, period health, acnes, skin rashes, parasites, fungus, mould, environmental- lights, computers, technology, EMFs. Anything and everything, write it all done.

5. Now, put a percentage around those things as well.

6. You have two options now. You can:

(a) do a combination, get a bigger beaker so you don’t feel like you are about to boil over all the time. How do you do this? You do more things that you love in life, you create more joy, more purpose, more fun and connection. More learning! What ever it is that you love.

OR,

(b) you start to take control of the stressors that you can control. And guess what the great news is? Everything health related/symptom related, you are in control of. You can change this. How awesome is that!!!

7. Now colour in all the ones you can change. Remember when your are suffering from a symptom that’s a huge stress on your body and guess what, you take that internal stress everywhere you go. So your body is in constant stress when you heal that symptom you are getting rid of a whole bunch of internal stress in your life. It’s so EXCITING!

What can you do today to change one of your internal symptoms?
