I was startled awake this week by an emergency warning alert. 
The storm surge was high enough to justify waking thousands of people in the wee hours of the morning … apparently.
Unable to go back to sleep, I used the extra time to extend my morning meditation. As my nervous system calmed down, my awareness intensified.
I was interviewed for a podcast the previous day. As usual, I was urging the host … and her audience … to pay attention to symptoms.
Take them seriously.
In meditation, it became clear. Symptoms are your emergency warning signs!
When a symptom surfaces, it has overwhelmed your body’s defense system. The symptom is the equivalent of storm surge … at a full moon high tide.
We can’t control the weather, the moon or the tide 
, but we can manage the stress that’s creating an emergency. Our survival depends on it.
Are you regularly suppressing symptoms? How well are you managing stress?

Until next week …
Be Well!
