Найти книгу: "Rethinking Stress in an Age of Ease"

Stress is a concept that has become both increasingly popularized and misunderstood in society. Today we often think about how «stressed» we are, many on a daily basis. This is especially interesting when we consider that as life has become easier, at least from a materialistic standpoint, rates of depression and anxiety in our culture have risen.
It is true that living with too many demands in life can be harmful to our physical and emotional health. But it is equally true that when we believe difficult circumstances are an unnatural part of life, we only set ourselves up for increased fear and sorrow.
Hans Selye, the scientist who discovered how stress operates in the mind and body nearly a century ago, never intended for it morph into the now common idea that all stress is «bad» for us. Yet that's precisely what has occurred, driven by three particular social changes in the last half-century.
This little guide is a «back to the basics» kind of field manual written for students, but is generally for all ages. By rethinking the proper role that stress plays in our lives, we will be better positioned not only to deal with life's challenges, but to embrace all seasons as a part of our journey while on earth.

Полный вариант заголовка: «The distress'd wife : A comedy / By the late Mr. Gay, author of the Beggar's opera».

France, XVII century. Young Arabella, not knowing that such wealth and luxury, gets an invitation to the ball. Drugged to flatter the monarch, an innocent girl not notice that he is in the Royal bed. But the fee for the title mistress of the king is too high. The girl will have to visit the intoxicating harem of the East, the flight to sit down on the bed of a hated Sultan, to appear before himself with the Sacred court. And this is only the beginning of a difficult road leading to true love.

Almost daily we hear people use the word stress, so it seems that almost everyone knows what this phenomenon represents and how to recognize it, not not how to prevent or mitigate its harmful consequences. Stress is a set of emotional, physical, physiological and behavioral responses that occur when an event is thought to be hazardous or disturbing, and beyond our capacity to cope with. Of course, we should not forget that stress is essentially a very positive part of human nature.

"Pohiline on moista, et meditatsioon on seotud jalgimisega. Sa jalgid, mis su sees toimub, olenemata sellest, mis toimub ­umberringi. Kodus, too juures, hommikul, ohtul… Tanapaeva huperaktiivne moistus ei lase sul paigal istuda. Niisiis, jooksu pealt mediteerimine ongi asja voti: olles aktiivne, on jalgimine algul palju lihtsam. Sellest tulenebki selles raamatus kirjeldatud Osho aktiivse meditatsiooni ja teiste tegusatele inimestele moeldud meditatsioonide vaartus. Paradoksaalselt, kui puuad istuda paigal, markad vaid hullumeelselt poorlevat moistust. Kui oled terve tegusa paeva poorelnud ja jalginud, siis markad, et sul on vaikne kese. Void ka avastada, et osa sellest hullust moistusest tuleb minema saata, enne kui suudad lodvestuda ja olla vaikselt.Raamat „Meditatsioon hoivatud inimestele” Osho nouannetega toob sinuni erinevaid enese avastamise viise, milline olukord ka poleks. Void avastada vahemalt selle, kes sa pole.Selle teaduse juures on imetore see, et igauks on oma laboris teadlane. Uskumusi ei nouta. Ega usu kinnitamist. Lihtsalt on vaja teaduslikku lahenemist, kui voetakse hupotees ja seda enda peal katsetatakse. Kui see ebaonnestub, pole probleemi, su paberikorv on ilmselt juba pooleldi tais. Kui onnestub, oled avastanud kuldvotmekese. Pahupool puudub.Teadlased on marganud, et ka normaalsed vanusega kaasnevad muutused on mediteerijatel vahem valjendunud – meditatsioon on kindlasti odavam kui kortsudevastane kreem!
