Psychological stress causes more illness than diet, genetics, or medicine. Stress comes from how you interpret events, not the events themselves. By reframing worst-case scenarios to find advantages, you can relax and handle whatever happens with more ease.
I believe that stress is the major source of our illness. Really? Over and above diet, genetics, even treatment. That's a very big statement. And that stress, though, is psychological, right? Events don't cause stress. What causes stress are the views you take of the event. So if you open it up and you're more mindful, and if you said to yourself, rather than this thing is going to be awful, give yourself 5 reasons why it might actually So now it could be awful, could be advantageous. You're immediately somewhat relaxed. But I say go the next step. Let's assume it does happen. What are the advantages? The worst-case scenario. And what are the advantages? And so then when you say, you know, you'll be able to deal with whatever happens, then you're, you're less worried about them. And, you know, you don't have to spend so much time trying to control the outcome.
