The Importance of Managing Stress
October 10th, 2009 | Published in Stress Management
Managing personal stress is more important that one can imagine. There are of course the common reasons that existence of stress compromises the functioning of the body and results in its accelerated break-down. But here I focus on a couple of uncommon and equally important reasons.
First, who one is being, through fractal-pressure, invites the reality of one’s circumstance and creates the reality of one’s world. This theme has been amply explored in my new book – Connecting Inner Power With Global Change: The Fractal Ladder. If one lives in states of physical, emotional, and mental stress, then those states act as attractors of corresponding physical, emotional / vital, and mental stresses in layers of organization more complex and removed from the organization characterized by the level of the individual, to ripple out to the layer of organization characterized by the global playing-field itself. In my perception, hence, global symptoms such as climate change and the global financial crises, have their roots in states of stress experienced at the level of the person.
Further, living in states of stress keeps one locked into the surface of one’s being. One is driven by myopic surface-oriented physical, emotional / vital, and / or mental states of being. At the same time one is locked out of deeper possibilities resident within oneself. Lack of managing personal stress, whether it be states of the physical nature such as inertia or fatigue, or states of the emotional / vital nature such as fear, anger, jealousy, doubt, or depression, or states of the mental nature such as anxiety, mental noise or short-sightedness, perpetuates the trivial and wasteful reality of these states of being. 
On the other hand, managing these states of being so that they do not exercise themselves or form the kernel of one’s action in the world, means that one is now potentially open to deeper possibilities that are no doubt resident in the depths of one’s being. It is only when the common surface dynamics we are habitually used to can seize to be operative, through a process of managing stress, that one can enter into meaningful silence and become more aware of who one is at one’s core and who one stands for in the play of the world.
Hence, Aurosoorya has launched an iPhone application – Stress Manager – to help individuals progressively enter into and create the reality that they deeply stand for. This iPhone app is available through the Apple store at: Stress Manager. Online help for this application is available at: http://www.aurosoorya.com/iphonestressmanager/
