Early man didn’t connect childbirth with  sex because the birth of the offspring came so long after the sex act that they weren’t connected. Modern man doesn’t connect the debilitating stress load he’s carrying to heart attacks, strokes, syndromes including IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), chronic fatigue syndrome, cystic fibrosis, PTSS (post traumatic stress syndrome), fibromyalgia and cancer for the same reason. The symptoms don’t manifest themselves for years!

Every cancer researcher knows that there is a connection between stress and most if not all forms of cancer. Stress wrecks havoc on the immune system so it isn’t able to do its job. People can carry a serious stress load with apparently no ill effects for years.

We’ve long realized that man could be pushed over edge mentally by stress, and we now realize that he can be pushed over the edge into an illness or syndrome as well. If a person is mostly generating beta brain waves and does not go into the extremely beneficial alpha and theta waves except for when he falls deep asleep, his body and mind are not able to be refreshed by the alpha and the theta brain waves. One simply cannot relax when the brain is in the beta mode. Ever. Stress is experienced only in the beta state. Don’t get me wrong, we couldn’t function without moving into the beta state, but a balance must be struck.

Stress lowers the immune system. The immune system is what the body uses to fight off infection, disease and these things called syndromes. Syndromes can be every bit as debilitating as a disease, but what is a syndrome anyway? A syndrome is a disorder with some common signs and symptoms that taken together are characteristic of a particular malady. Quite often it defies a positive diagnosis. Alleviation of some or all of the symptoms varies from patient to patient, and regrettably is all that medical science is able to provide at this point in time.

To fight off stress, one must drop down from the beta mode, which is a fully engaged state, into alpha and theta which are the relaxing, the reflective, the introspective and the creative modes. The creative modes are not just for the arts or inventions, they are where the mind comes up with solutions to the problems of life. When the answers to the problems are found – the stress disappears. These two modes, the alpha and the theta mode are where our mind is refreshed and re-energized.bungee run for sale
