Are you finding yourself feeling easily angered, irritated, annoyed with situations or people that wouldn't have previously bothered you? Are you reacting more intensely and negatively than normal? Do you find yourself being curt, terse, disagreeable with, or even yelling at, people when you would have been calm in the past? These are just some of the signs that stress has built up in your life.

The fast pace of the world and the resulting stress makes finding ways to reduce and manage stress essential. Career success in the future for many is likely going to depend on soft skills and emotional intelligence. This means having the ability to stay calm in stressful environments and situations where it is easy to become stressed, anxious, irritated, annoyed.

What if it were possible to:

• Go from feeling completely stressed out, anxious, and overwhelmed to feeling calm, centered, and balanced?
• Be able to gain 1) distance from experiences that are causing you stress, 2) the ability to pause and choose how to respond to those experiences, and 3) more self-control?
• Unburden yourself from work or other stress so that you can be your best in all areas of your life?
• Reduce existing physical symptoms of stress, like headaches, neck and shoulder tension, and gastrointestinal (GI) issues?
• Prevent future expensive and debilitating stress-related illnesses from occurring?
• Achieve that in a way that doesn't involve medication or hashing over various upsetting or traumatic past experiences?
• Achieve this change through healing sessions where you sit back and relax, while Kathryn Palacio cleanses the stress-related used up energies and blockages from your system?
• Learn to maintain and expand upon the newfound levels of calm after each healing session and use affirmations and tips provided to help you build and new, positive way of thinking and to cleanse your own energy field?

Welcome to the group healing Open to Calm: Heal and Reduce Stress and Anxiety with Kathryn Palacio! I'm so happy that your here.

Imagine that you're working on a big project at work with a tight deadline, or that you're feeling stressed or anxious over finances or a relationship. Wouldn't it be great if you could open the value to release some of the pressure?

Stress is such a pervasive problem these days. Unfortunately, most of us begin to get desensitized to stress and see it as our "normal" state. When we're younger, we can often bounce back from stress because our bodies are healthy and resilient. Many of us even feel proud at how we thrive under pressure and in stressful situations; that is until our bodies begin telling us "no". The body might start with GI issues or headaches, but eventually, because we aren't listening to the warning signals, our bodies may start to experience more chronic or severe illnesses.

Stress is a natural response to challenging situations, but when it becomes chronic, it can have negative impacts on our physical, emotional, and mental health. Anxiety, on the other hand, is a feeling of worry or fear about future events, and can also lead to significant distress if not properly managed.

It's important to recognize the signs of stress and anxiety in order to address them effectively. By healing the root causes of stress and anxiety, we can begin to cultivate healthier coping mechanisms and reduce their impact on our lives.

If you're joining these group healings, you're proactively beginning changing how stress and anxiety are affecting you. Being open to change and growth is a great place to be, and I'm honored to be on this journey with you as you Open to Calm, whether for one week or several! Thank you for helping to make the world a better place. The more of us who get our stress levels under control and are able to navigate the world from a calm and kind place, the better the world is for all of us.

Many blessings,

Kathryn
