InnerSelf Magazine - June 27th, 2004 InnerSelf Magazine  June 27th, 2004      "Our ability to love, to be creative, to be at peace, to achieve our goals, and to enjoy our day to day living are greatly enhanced once we are no longer ruled by our anger." -- Life Without Anger, Dean Van Leuven     NEW ATTITUDES... NEW POSSIBILITIES Welcome to the June 27th, 2004 edition of InnerSelf Magazine. We are not "stuck" with the life we have. There is always another way, another day, another possibility. If there are parts of our life that we do not enjoy, we can make changes... in our life, in our environment, in our attitudes, in ourselves... This week we take a look at stress and anger and offer ways to "Snap Out Of It!" through dream imagery and other methods. We can create a better life for ourselves and others... the first step is to set our intention, and then walk the talk... with love and joy!

She looked around nervously, afraid that someone would hear, or worse yet, confirm the ominous truth that lay naked in her question. She had just revealed her deepest fear and curiosity to 200 people who had gathered for a seminar on group work, diversity issues, and conflict resolution. This afternoon we were focusing on homosexuality and homophobia. Healing with Dream Imagery by Wanda Easter Burch. In ancient Greece, dreams and visions were the most common method of inquiry into the cause and cure of disease. Galen documented a description of the effect of images and the imagination on health. He believed that one could study the records of a patient's imagery and dream content to glean important diagnostic information. Such inputs would help doctors help teach their patients to learn how to heal themselves, and help patients bring their bodies and minds hack into balance. How to Manage Stress by Dawn Groves. Life doesn't have to be a process of ongoing damage control. There are many things we can do to keep stress from eroding our health and happiness. The fastest way to fix the problems in your life is to remove your stressors. It's also the hardest. But don't worry; there are alternatives to firing your boss, leaving your home, redesigning your spouse, or trading in your body. Parenting Without Anger by Dean Van Leuven. We use anger in disciplining our children because we become upset by what they do, and we then become angry. We then tend to mix our anger in with the lessons we are trying to teach the child. But when we mix the 'lesson' with our anger, we end up teaching our child that it's okay to respond with anger to things that upset us. When we respond with anger, the child learns anger. Snap Out Of It! by Ilene Segalove. Humans are creatures of habit, and sometimes we get stuck in a rut. Sometimes we're overwhelmed. We face a simple daily task and spin into panic or just plain freeze. We become spinners and wind ourselves into a tizzy or become zombies and space out in a stupor. Neither opens up our hearts or minds to the real challenges or pleasures at hand. We need to snap out of it and get back into living again. But how?   THIS ISSUE'S COLUMNS: HOROSCOPE (weekly): by Eliza Bassett. Current Week;   Previous Week (NEW HOROSCOPE EACH THURSDAY)   DEAR CHILD: by Shari Rathman.
