Dealing with Fear

Dealing with Fear: During his first inaugural address at the height of the Great Depression, Franklin D. Roosevelt declared, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself!” The suggestion was that fear is primarily an internal issue, not an external one. During the same period in history, Edgar Cayce was giving readings that stated exactly the same thing about fear. We have all experienced fear, and it can be anywhere from annoying to unpleasant to downright paralyzing. Most of the time, it is an invisible influence functioning as a destructive paradigm that forms our misperceptions, misunderstandings, and maladaptive responses. By distracting us from our resources, sometimes it can bring about, paradoxically, the very conditions over which we have worried so much.

Effect of a full moon

Full Moon's Effects on Emotions & Health There is an ancient awareness of the Full Moon's effects on mental and emotional balance. This awareness gives us the words lunatic, lunacy, and loony . . . all derived from the Latin word Luna, the Goddess of the Moon. In Britain, the problem was apparently so widespread that they created the 1824 Lunacy Act, which stated that people were liable to go mad when the Moon was full. This "lunacy" strikes in different ways. Here is a list of some of the Full Moon's effects on humans that have been documented. . . Hospital accident and emergency units see about 10% more patients Significant increase in visits to medical practices for consultations after the full moon Increase in epileptic seizures, bleeding ulcers, and hemorrhaging Dramatic rise in admissions to psychiatric hospitals Higher number of mental patients become highly disturbed The Full Moon adversely affects patient behavior. Airline passengers create more incidents Crimes of violence increase at the full moon Murders - many apparently motiveless - triple Arson attacks increase by 100% Suicide rates increase Alcohol consumption rises at the start and end of the lunar cycle. More drunk drivers, more crashes and more hangovers. Ovulation — and sexual desire — peak with the Full Moon. Emotional bio-rhythms cycle ties in with the 28 day lunar cycle.
