		<description><![CDATA[A woman came to see me about hair loss.  She was in the midst of a bitter divorce, but surprisingly, that was not he reason her hair was falling out.  Rather, her intelligence pointed to a years-old business matter that, in the contect of recent events, had subconsciously felt like a breach of her integrity.  Thanks to the Stress Evaluation, she was able to not be misled by the obvious but instead to identify and resolve the actual problem. <a href="http://mindbodystressmgmt.com/2011/02/the-clarity-of-the-stress-evaluation-an-example/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

In over thirty-five years of clinical use with thousands of clients, Graf Stress Management has found stress at the root of all types of illness, from the transitory (e.g., headaches) to the chronic (infertility, fibromyalgia, addiction) to the debilitating and terminal (cancer, lupus, AIDS, bipolar disorder).   <a href="http://mindbodystressmgmt.com/2011/02/not-just-ulcers-and-headaches-any-illness-can-stem-from-stress/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite society's endorsement of ever-lower value standards, the stress evaluation reveals that each of us has high value standards in a number of important areas (e.g., morality, integrity, honesty and fidelity) which cannot be lowered.  While we are free to live beneath these standards, doing so constitutes a debilitating stress on us.  Interestingly, these values appear to be inborn and may be raised as we gain further insight.  That is, our baseline of acceptable behavior rises as we recognize a superior standard, but it cannot be adjusted downward unless we have internalized a false standard, which CAN be discarded.  We appear to be hard-wired on an upward path, straying from which is very stressful to us. <a href="http://mindbodystressmgmt.com/2010/12/our-value-standards-are-high-including-yours/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A predominant insight of Graf Stress Management is that forgiveness is not a mere social nicety but in fact an unparalleled 'magic bullet' for relieving stress and counteracting its mental and physical debilitation.  However, to be effective, forgiveness must be targeted to the specific offense causing problems for us, which can be difficult to discern with the conscious mind, thus highlighting the value of the Stress Evaluation.   <a href="http://mindbodystressmgmt.com/2010/11/forgiveness-the-most-effective-way-to-handle-stress/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
