Are You Addicted to Stress? Learn Why Here – Part 2

In a previous post, I asked the question, “Are you addicted to stress?”

Please read that post to get some context for this post…or not.

It’s important to understand that once you’ve discovered your addiction, and you decide to change this fundamental aspect of yourself, a slow but steady approach works best. 

How many times have you, or someone you know, tried to quit smoking cigarettes ‘cold turkey’, only to be smoking again a month later?   This is the reason why anyone serious about quitting smoking should start by reducing the number of cigarettes they consume each day.  This will allow their cells to adapt their receptors.  Slowly but surely they’ll require less of the peptides provided by the chemicals in the cigarette. 

This concept is easily understood when you consider the nicotine gum treatment, where successive prescriptions of the gum will have less and less nicotine.  This allows your body to be ‘weaned off’ of the addictive substance slowly.

Quitting smoking is an easy example. 

What about quitting being angry all of the time?  Or quitting jealousy or worry or stress?  These states of mind and emotional being are also driven by the peptide/receptor relationship.

If you’ve spent most of your life hating something, then you have an excess of receptors waiting to be fed that particular ‘hate’ peptide.  If you’ve always been a jealous person, then you’re feeding your cells the jealousy peptide, and there are more ‘jealousy’ receptors than ‘love’ receptors on your cells.

All emotional and physical habits can be traced back to this ongoing chemical relationship. 

Your body is truly an amazing instrument, but it doesn’t exist without your mind.  Take time to exercise your mind. 

The mental stimulation will keep you sharp and prepared.

If you put my program into practice, you will have now started to decrease those receptors for emotions which do not serve you.  You will stop feeding them the negative thoughts and behaviors they thrive on. 

At the same time, you will have begun to increase the receptors for the peptides that stimulate the feelings and emotions you do want in your life. 

By working on both sides of the physiological equation together – focusing on what you want to experience and removing from your focus anything you don’t want to experience – you will find a quickened path to your goal.
