In times of stress be aware that ideas of illness can arise. This might mean that an inkling of sickness is really telling you to slow down, that you are doing too much, giving too much, overwhelming your own body with too many stress hormones that find no place to rest. Take care of your body, especially during times of stress, for rest of the body, mind and spirit are as important as peace in the world. And if you are not at peace within yourself then there will not be peace outside of you either. So, get some good and nurturing rest in whatever stress-free way appeals to you, for a stress-free you will mean a stress-free world.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Maintain equilibrium at all times, striving to achieve an alignment of mind, body and spirit so that you are not thrown easily by dire circumstances. Maintain a cool approach rather than a hotheaded one so that your mind is clear enough to see the truth and to act upon it. In times of stress it is good to remember that all things change, that this time too will pass, but how you handle it while in the midst of it is equally important. That’s where equilibrium comes in and does its job to keep things in perspective and to maintain a balanced outlook on life. Change is inevitable, but don’t make it harder on yourself. Stay balanced in all things at all times.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Let stress be your guide to relaxation, to calmness and to balance. When stress arises, dispel it with breath. Eradicate it with thought that is mantric, healing and soothing. Tell it to go away with firmness, for what is stress but a thought gone awry, that has lost its way and only needs to be told that it is not wanted, that it does not need to suffer in the land of the living, for stress comes from outside. Keep this in mind whenever stress is present in your life, that it is conjured by thought not conducive to a calm central nervous system. Breathe. Calm the body with breath. Calm the mind with breath. Let breath be your stress reliever.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Let not the stresses of the world overpower you. Stay always connected to your loving heart, to your calm inner self who knows that all things must have their time, and that in the end love and kindness will prevail. Stress only depletes your energy systems and causes more than its share of malady. Relax your body, relax your mind. Let love be the source of your energy and all will be well.

Sending you love,
