Stress


For me it's always midnight with the phone out of
order and a murderer on the fire escape. What I
suffer from nerves could be a technicolor spectacle.
-- Helen Hudson


I feel so agitated all the time, like a hamster in
search of a wheel
-- Carrie Fisher


Every stress leaves an indelible scar, and the
organism pays for its survival after a stressful
situation by becoming a little older.
-- Hans Selye  


Stress is basically a disconnection from the earth,
a forgetting of the breath. Stress is an ignorant state.
It believes that everything is an emergency.
-- Natalie Goldberg


The bow always strung . . . will not do.
-- George Eliot

The Stress Doc

Stress is no laughing matter, that is unless you're multimedia
humorist and psychotherapist Mark Gorkin, who uses the
"Higher Power of Humor" and is internationally known as the
"Stress Doc" and America Online's "Online Psychohumorist"
as well as an AdviceZone.com "Real Expert."

For over twenty years, he has been a training expert and
organizational development consultant to hundreds of major
corporations, associations, non-profits and federal and state
government agencies (including a stint as a stress and
violence prevention consultant for the US Postal Service).

He was recently interviewed by the Washington Post
regarding the effects of stress on the two presidential
candidates during the protracted post-election battle.

Mark is also the founder of an award-winning USA Today
Online "HotSite" Website.

If all these impressive accomplishments were left out of
the picture - what would remain is his most striking
characteristic - that he is such a good and faithful friend
to so many. He hasn't gotten any awards for that - and
it's not on his resume - but it's his most meaningful role.

So don't miss your appointment with the Stress Doc.
You'll have fun at his site!!
