FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Holiday
Stress And Anxiety
- Mary Lore of Managing Thought Suggests Changing Thinking Patterns Can
Reduce Stress and Bring Peace of Mind
Mary Lore, CEO of Managing Thought LLC and author of Managing Thought: How Do
Your Thoughts Rule
Your World?,
proposes that stress reduction and peace of mind is achieved through
learning to manage thought.
[December
3,
2009, Detroit MI] With holiday plays and parties to attend,
cards to mail, gifts to buy, baking to do, guests to prepare for, and a
slashed budget to boot, we may find ourselves tied up in ribbons. Yet
“focusing on the essence of what you want is one of the most
powerful ways of thinking to reduce stress and bring about peace and
happiness during the holidays,” states Mary Lore, author of
the multiple award-winning book and audio book, Managing Thought: How Do
Your Thoughts Rule Your World?
"During these stressful times," Lore states, "we may find ourselves
consumed with thoughts of worry, self-criticism, frustration, and even
anger. Thinking about the essence of what we want, on the other hand,
raises us
to a new level of consciousness, gives us the ability to discover what
truly matters to us, receive ideas on what to do next, and experience
peace and happiness."
Lore, also an internationally recognized executive mentor, public
speaker, and founder of Managing Thought, LLC – suggests the
following practices to discover the essence of what you want.
1. Stop thinking, “I have
to,” “I need to” or
“I should” thoughts. As soon as you catch
yourself thinking one of these judgmental – and exhausting
– thoughts, restate your thoughts using the words,
“I choose,” “I am committed
to,” “It would be great if” or
“I wonder how I can” and notice what happens.
These powerful thoughts help us relax, discover what we really want and
open us to the many ideas on how to achieve it.
2. List everything you think you want to
accomplish during the holidays, and ask yourself, “What does
this bring me?” for each item. Keep asking and answering the
question “What does this bring me?” until you get
to the essence of what you want. If the essence of what we want brings
us peace or inspires us, we open ourselves to the myriad of
possibilities on how to fulfill what we truly want. If the essence does
not bring us peace, then we can cross the item off our list or choose
another way to think about it.
3. Take a deep breath focusing on the
exhale and think “I wonder what truly matters in this
moment?” Reinvoking the state of wonder is a sure-fire way to
reduce stress, spark creativity, and keep us fully present and focused
on what really brings us peace and joy.
Lore conducts workshops across North America as founder and president
of Managing Thought, LLC, which helps individuals and organizations
develop self-awareness and change how they think to attain long-lasting
success.
Mary’s book has won six best book awards in various business,

that Enlighten and Inspire place Mary with previous winners including
Deepak Chopra, M.D., Eckhart Tolle, and His Holiness the Dalai
Lama.
