STRESS: An Overview 

Stress comes when a person experiences danger of any kind. When a person is "stressed", the body produces hormones (known as ACTH) that result in a fight or flight response.  It is very important to relieve these stress hormones in a healthy way otherwise they will become toxic to the body and life.

In dangerous situations, this response is, for survival reasons, a good thing, but in our daily life, fighting, beating up or running away from the "noisy neighbor" or the "mean customer", or the "employee" or the "boss" is not realistic, nor is

running away from difficult situations or major disagreements, so we are forced to find more effective ways to release and manage these feelings.

Basically "stress" alone is not the real problem. The problem lies with ongoing or too much unrelenting stress because it can lead to the destruction of people’s health and drains their energy level.

The only way to effectively regenerate from the negative effects of stress is with deep mental, emotional and physical relaxation.  This usually that takes a long time, but Dr. Coldwell scientifically developed the Ucure Power Break system which is the most effective way to speed up the regeneration and vitalization process through mental and emotional stimulations while the body is in an optimum relaxation state and the brain is extremely alert.

The differences between emotional and mental stress

Emotional stress comes from worries, fears, anxieties, feelings of hopelessness, doubts, etc.

Mental stress comes from creating recurring negative pictures in your mind, thinking about horrible things that have or could happen, etc.

If both types of stress are not reduced and controlled, they will eventually lead to a health breakdown!

Frequent stress reduction sessions and learning effective ways to deal with stressful situations is the best method to achieve health prevention.

The U-Cure Power Break System is the brainchild of Dr. Leonard Coldwell, an established expert in the field of stress reduction, and offers a range of sessions based on Europe’s leading stress-reduction and self-help systems. It’s not stress itself that causes the problem, but how one responds to stress, and that means that while stress cannot necessarily be avoided, inappropriate responses can.

A Power Break session helps people to relieve emotional and mental stress and tension so that they can get regenerated and revitalized physically, mentally and emotionally in only in 20 minutes!
