SR works for RA

Posted by lovebird on September 10, 2003 at 13:17:49:

I read the Relaxation Response book years ago and have used biofeedback regularly over the years.

SR does work for RA and chronic illnesses.

I am very relaxed and peaceful.

Great rewards come from relaxing.

I agree with you about the major health benefits of deep relaxation. These days, though,I wonder how anyone can really relax, unless you simply avoid the news media. Wherever you look/listen, you have the Bush administration hammering away at "terrorism" and scaring us out of our wits. Worse than the "Red scare" of the McCarthy era (where people started to look for communists hiding under their beds.) I know Dr. Andrew Weil, in his wellness plan, advocates a "media" break -- one day a week with no TV, radio, newspaper, or internet news.

Hi Gigi,

My television now lives in the bottom of my closet, buried under a bunch of junk. I am a much happier person that way.

Dr. Weil only recommends one day a week? Seven is much, much better!!!!!

Best wishes,
Happygal

well, it depends on you handle the news. Personally I Like
to be informed about dangers or potential ones and do what
I think might protect me and seeing the admin looking like
liars and fools makes me feel better than if they were
geting everything they want and if the things they do get
or do bring the country down, I have plans or am
anticipating. Have to finish geting prepared just in case
there is another 9-11.
