Don't let stress destroy you...

Dear Total Health Breakthroughs Reader - Screeeeeech! You slam on the brakes as the green Camry cuts in front of you. "Nice blinker!" you scream at the windshield. "Jerk!" You can feel your pulse throbbing in your head. Your knuckles whiten as you strangle the steering wheel. You bite back a string of obscenities. These daily stresses - not to mention the great stresses like divorce, job loss or the death of a loved one - can make you cranky or even depressed. Plus, they wreak havoc on your health. In fact, according to psychologist Russ Newman of the American Psychological Association, "the high stress levels that many Americans report experiencing can have long-term health consequences, ranging from fatigue to obesity and heart disease." Stress, in fact, is a primary reason that people can't live the vibrant, happy lives we are meant to live. But you don't have to let stress destroy you. Meet Dr. Srikumar Rao, an Ivy League-educated business professor and scholar of religion and philosophy. Based on years spent studying centuries-old healing traditions and seeing their positive effects in his students, Dr. Rao has come up with a "treatment" for stress that may even prevent other physical ills. A University of Kentucky study, for instance, finds that this "treatment" can help lower your blood pressure. Another study - by Northwestern Medical Hospital - found that it can help improve sleep. According to Dr. Thaddeus Pace of Emory University, it shows promise in helping prevent "many conditions associated with stress and with inflammation including major depression, heart disease, and diabetes." But this "treatment" isn't a drug. Nor is it expensive behavioral or physical therapy. It doesn't require lengthy classes or special equipment. Dr. Rao calls it the "Metta Method" and it is powerful, safe, and natural. Plus, it works quickly. In fact, Dr. Rao can teach you the Metta Method in its entirety in just 8 minutes and 19 seconds. Once you know how to do it, you can do it anywhere, at any hour, in even less time. Aside from the potential health benefits, the Metta Method can make a lasting positive change in your day-to-day mental and emotional well-being. Do it before bed, and this technique will help you sleep more soundly and peacefully, and wake up already in a good mood. Apply this technique to stressful situations - high-pressure meetings, bumper-to-bumper traffic, long lines at the bank - and it will help you defuse your frustration and even help you appreciate people who normally irritate you. Whether you practice it at work or at home, this technique can help you feel calmer and more at ease. Dr. Rao walks you through The Metta Method in Session 3 of his Personal Mastery Program. But this stress "treatment" is just one of dozens of simple life enhancers he has to offer. In the Personal Mastery Program, he also uncovers: What you REALLY need to be happy (and it doesn't involve money, love, a job, or fancy cars)... The 6-word Sufi "mantra" that can ensure nothing terrible happens to you for the rest of your life... How to transform a job you despise into a job that's truly fulfilling - without changing bosses, getting a promotion, or earning more money... The single cause of ALL the stress in your life - and how to eliminate this "ultimate stressor" for good... Plus dozens of other practical, useful techniques for making your life happier and more fulfilling. One of Dr. Rao's students, Randy S., says, "Dr. Rao's program gave me tools that will serve me throughout my life. I have seen changes in my relationships, all resulting in much more fulfilling engagement with more positive results." "Dr. Rao's program changed my life," says Mike K. "I was really unhappy. Now, a friend noted that I seem much more relaxed, calm, and happy." Says Gill C., "The work of Srikumar Rao has been exceptionally helpful to me in defining my life and work." The Metta Method is brand new for Total Health Breakthroughs readers and very exciting. To get free information about it while there is still time, click here.
