Dear
Visitor/Customer,
Contemporary
Notice: The
economic stress caused by the global economic crisis has
impacted individuals and families and can bring long term health problems.
This, in turn, can multiply and intensify negative
thoughts and emotions. Stress management should be one
of your major priorities. Heart centered prayer of your
inner person can make a sustainable contribution in this area.
The Mission of CLHERBS.COM is to continue researching, recommending,

mission is also to communicate and promote stress
managemnt strategies and products
from HeartMath, Inc. Stress and its relationship to disease prevention and quality of life
impacts your total person (which is your inner person) on many
levels. Your total person is your mind, body, heart, and
soul. Our spiritual life is a vital part of our
holistic health strategy.
The
pictures at the top are of Saints Cosmas and Damian - patron Saints of
health care and disease prevention in the Eastern Orthodox Tradition.
They were chosen to emphasize that holistic health
is about more than the body. It is about body, mind, heart and soul and
their synergistic interaction directed by your inner person which is no
longer under control of the passions.
This website explores the question of
heart based Transpersonal Health. Can transpersonal non-local dimensions have an impact
on our health - both positive and negative? Many
will answer this question with cerebral based solutions,
but we base our health exploration model in the
heart. Developing Inter-dimensional health keeps
our body, mind, heart, and soul in
inter-dimensional balance.
The
heart is the key to holistically reorienting the
energies of your inner person. The heart should be your center or
base of operations for integrating your mind, body,
heart and soul. We need all of our
faculties functioning as a team. When you are
using your heart intelligence correctly it is a major aid in
managing stress.
Stress is a term
used to describe the wear and tear the body and soul experience in
reaction to everyday tensions and pressures. Change, illness,
injury or career and lifestyle changes, are common causes of
stress, however, it's the affects of stress, like pressure and
tension, that we feel in response to the little everyday hassles—like
rush hour traffic, waiting in line, and too many emails—that
do the most damage. Feelings of anger, jealousy, and hatred also
cause stress and are symptoms of an unhealthy soul.
Stress and the
effects of stress are often misunderstood. We look at outside
events as the source of stress, but in fact stress is really
caused by our emotional reactions to events. The stress we
experience in today's world often goes unnoticed and unmanaged.
Many people have simply adapted to stress in an unhealthy way,
resigned to thinking it's "just the way it is".
Unfortunately, lack of stress management has created a pandemic
of low-grade anxiety and depression which directly effects the
immune and the endocrine systems.
Emotions, or
feelings, have a powerful impact on the human body. Emotions
like frustration, insecurity and depressing feelings are
stressful and inhibit optimal health and relief from stress.
Positive emotions like appreciation, care, and love not only
feel good, they promote health, performance and well-being.
The science of
Psychoneuroimmunology, (PNI) now more than 20 years old, has
established the interconnectedness of the mind with the nervous,
endocrine, and immune systems. PNI views the body as an integrated
network. When healthy, this network allows the body
systems to work in harmony with the mind and emotions.
The heart is the center and summation of
the faculties of the soul - the
intelligent, the appetitive (desire) and the incensive
(affective, what we call the temper).
A growing body of
evidence is demonstrating that life stress, including negative
emotions, can alter immune function, thus impacting the body's
ability guard against disease and maintain health.
Chronic
activation of cortisol, the body's response to stress, can
produce unhealthy physiological outcomes including increased
blood pressure, diabetes, arteriosclerosis, immune systems
suppression, to name but a few. Sustained negative
emotions have also been shown to contribute to these problems
(for more on the effects of negative emotions see the Techniques page).
Developing sustained,
positive emotions will contribute to greater well being and enhanced
quality of life. So Get
Well and Stay Well! Start Improving your quality
of life today! Your are worth the investment.
Sincerely,
C.L.
