Take this simple stress test...

This week I had a very stressful day - it's rare for me to experience stress these days. I was astounded at the effect it had on me. While meditating I did my usual exercise of saying 'Be still and know that I am God' in time to my heartbeat. My heart was racing!

I was so shocked. I thought, 'Is this how many people live all the time?' Please take my simple stress test. Sit quietly, 'listen' for your heartbeat (it's a pulse in your ears) and say the words. If your heart is racing I urge you to re-think your life, before it's too late.

The perfect stress buster is to go on retreat for a few days alone, and completely unwind. That's what I am doing tomorrow. So, sorry, no blog on Monday - I'll talk to you on Friday. God bless...
