This is the standard response when you ask this question to anyone. People feel ashamed of accepting the fact that they are stressed. There is nothing wrong in being stressed. In fact I see that as sign of being alive and responsive to the surroundings and ever changing conditions in our life.
This is particularly true for people from south and south east Asia. Call it cultural conditioning or age old practise, people from this region do not express their emotions well enough. In fact keen observation will show that they do not express their emotions at all.
Suppressed emotions result in ill health. Conditions like high blood pressure, anxiety, depression, hyper tension, body pain, sleeplessness, lack of focus, lack of energy, etc. If you look around, the number of young people suffering from heart diseases is rising alarmingly. Blaming it on bad food habits is not going to change the fact of the matter. Food/diet is only part of the problem. The picture is incomplete if other factors like life style, stress, emotional problems, fears, phobias, conditioning and other such mental / emotional aspects are not taken in to consideration.
Then suddenly someone would stand up and argue, well so what's new? Every second 'expert' says this. People don't need convincing any more. It has been accepted beyond doubt. So what's the solution.
I wish there were a simpler solution to such a complex issue. But the good news is, there is a way to live better life. Through a little bit of self discipline, motivation and a little bit of creative thinking.
Before people get excited about this way to live better life, remember one thing, no one way is the right way. No one method would be suitable for all, just like no one person is similar to other.
So keeping our individual uniqueness in mind, one needs to formulate and fine tune the ways to live better.
Starting point is to change your thinking. You have probably heard this kind of idea before and here I am talking about the same idea once again. What does it mean to change thinking? Are there different types of thinking? Is there something wrong with my thinking? These are some questions that would come to your mind.
I would reply to such questions with one answer. 'Think outside the box'. How to think outside the box? How do we know if we are thinking outside the box? What is the box?
In order to make this experience more interactive, please write in your comments / questions or send them to me. I will try and answer most of them. This article continues in to next issue.

First of all, this is not a one off article. I intend to post one every week. I have mentioned that very clearly at the end of the current article.
What I am offering here is general overview and would take individual cases as and when possible. But I cannot possibly offer 1-on-1 session for all those who send in their questions. I have mentioned, earlier, I will try and answer most of the questions sent to me.
In response to purepanjabi, please specify, exactly what information would you like to know about me. I am open to questions regarding myself and will answer them with utmost openness and honesty.
Please log back to this site sometime next week and you will see my next article in the series published.
Please do send in comments, either publish here or directly to me. I will attend to most of them as soon as possible.
