It's hard to imagine how we ever conducted business back in the day before email, call forwarding and instant messaging. I actually remember when memos came in an envelope from the post office! And when I called someone, I asked 'How are you?' instead of 'Where are you?'

Perhaps the more important question is not how did we conduct business without all of today's technology but, rather, how do we survive with it? As 24/7 accessibility and the speed at which information is transmitted increase, so do our stress levels. We feel compelled to respond to every byte of incoming information as quickly as it was received. Emotions go on overdrive because we can't keep up. Fears, worries and anxieties are amplified, along with frustration, irritation and anger.

As if that weren't enough, the race to keep up with the pace of information blurs the lines between urgent and important. We rush to get everything done and usually don’t which only adds to more feelings of overload and overwhelm.

We all know we need to reduce stress. We just don't have the time to do what most traditional approaches to stress reduction tell us: RELAX. We need something we can do that doesn't require a trip to the spa, the beach or a quiet room. We need quick stress relief, something that works 24/7 while we multitask and answer all those emails. 

HeartMath's Quick Coherence® Technique is stress reduction for the 21st century: Fast, instant and on demand.

Heart focus. Focus your attention to the area around your heart.
Heart breathing. Imagine your breath flowing into and out of your heart.
Heart feeling. Recall a positive or fun time in your life and attempt to
re-experience it.

Now, doesn't that feel better?

Take care,
Kim Allen
