INNER Stress Management
Releasing Daily Stress by
'Stopping & Dropping'
Introduction, releasing our existing is the 1st stage of INNER Stress Management. Here we release the stress that is being
held in the body right now.

STUDY:
The wonderful way the human brain is constructed allows for:
    * events and their associate emotions of the past to be remembered
    * experience of body, heart and mind in the present moment
    * expectations, thoughts and concerns about the future  

But often we get caught in the stressful looping of thoughts and emotions. We call these Stress Loops. They are caused by
emotional memories of the past and/or anxious thoughts about the future. The stress loops will grow stronger if they are not
broken. They have a negative effect on the body and brain.

The simplest way to break these stress loops is to bring our attention back into the present moment. The sensations of the
body are always only happening in the present moment. We naturally release stress when we breath deeply and completely
and feel the grounding sensations of the body. Remembering to be more present by Stopping & Dropping requires practice.

APPLY
The more often we Stop & Drop, the more the nervous & hormonal systems come back into balance. Rather then being
controlled from the emotion 2nd brain, all the parts of the brain came be more clearly be used. This allows for the cause of
stressor to be investigate and understood. The more we understand about our own nature and the stressor the less stress we
will produce.
