Delwin - it seems to me that you really know yourself especially when it comes to stress. I can only speak for myself that usually I am knee deep in stressful situation before in dawns on me that I am stressed. Hopefully, that makes sense to you. I really like how you have taught yourself to stop with the 1234 hold breathing technique, it sounds like a technique that I would also be inclined to use. I would agree with you, that when I stop and turn my attention to nature especially to the sky when the sun is setting, I gives thanks for a beautiful day and am grateful for all that is given to me. One question I had, do you teach others in your 12 step meetings how to calm themselves or to stop when they feel stress? It is worth sharing. Thanks Delwin.
