"Not all stress is bad. The pressure to win at sports, the excitement of travel, winning the lottery, or getting married also put a strain on our constitution.

But that leaves 50 percent we can do something about!"
"The goal of Meridian Therapy is to heal emotional problems. The theory behind this technique is that old emotional wounds are stored in the body as blocked energy patterns. Stimulating energy points removes the disturbance, allowing our body/mind system to process the troubling problem. As the energy is brought into balance, worrisome thoughts and memories about upsetting circumstances change and negative emotions diminish. This process takes place on a bioelectro-magnetic level throughout our being."
