**STRESS MANAGEMENT**

Stress overtaxes the andrenal system, and is a major contributor to premature aging, degenerative disease, and early death. In these hurried times, we need to make a conscious effort to slow down and find satisfaction in life. Many methods help the mind overcome stress, including deep breathing, tai chi, yoga, meditation, qi gong, mantras, massage, reiki and biofeedback.
One of these modalities, reiki, is a powerful tool toward this end. The term is Japanenese for universal life force, and reiki, a form of therapeutic touch, works by amplifying and channeling this energy. This technique, like acupuncture, is centered on bodily meridians or energy paths, and proponents extol its ability to release physical and emotional blockages, promote total relaxation, and enhance recovery from stress and injuries.

What To Avoid
Keeping young and healthy is a balanced act. We must stay away from or compensate for the myriad of factors that disturb our equilibrium, such as foods chemicals that artificially stimulate energy and wear down the body (coffee, drugs, and cigarettes); alchohol, which accelerates brain cell deterioration; environmental toxins that compromise the immune system; and medicines that cover up symptoms, such as antacids, diuretics, or aspirin. It is equally important to let go of our preconceived notions of aging and, instead, stay active. Finally we must remember not to let stress get the best of us.

TREATMENT SUMMARY
Any method that removes the toxins that we accumulate every day will help. Some detoxification methods are juice fasting, chelation therapy, colonic irrigation, exercise, skin brushing and use of herbs.
Laboratory tests can let us know which systems need boosting and thus which nutrients will be most helpful.
Stress reduction slows down the aging process, and prevents degenerative disease. Hence Stress Management is essential to our total well being.
