STRAIN, COUNTERSTRAIN
STRAIN / COUNTERSTRAIN Developed by osteopath Lawrence Jones, this noninvasive treatment helps decrease protective muscle spasms and alleviate somatic dysfunction in the musculoskeletal system. By using palpation and passive positional procedures, the therapist practicing strain/counterstrain therapy can help restore pain-free movement. The position that relieves the referred pain is held for 90 seconds. After resuming the original position and pressing the trigger point, the referred pain is gone. Although the client is often asked to bend or twist like a contortionist to secure a comfortable position, for the most part clients report effectiveness of the procedure.

Strain and Counterstrain
Strain and Counterstrain also known as Positional Release, is an indirect technique to painlessly release tender/trigger points in 90 seconds by temporarily repositioning the body in the position of greatest ease, the "counterstrain" position. It could be described as the opposite of stretching, and works by re-educating the muscle spindle cells, which function as tension regulators for the muscles. It is able to address problems, such as rib dysfunctions, that are not treatable by other means. Developed by Lawrence Jones, D.O. in the 1950's, it has minimal impact on the circulatory system and is safe for everyone.

 |  |  | Strain: Encyclopedia II - Carpal tunnel syndrome - CausesSome cases of carpal tunnel syndrome are due to work-related cumulative trauma of the wrist. It is commonly caused by strain placed on the hand, for instance gripping and typing, which are usually performed repetitively in a person's occupation. The condition was first diagnosed in Australia in the 1980s when musicians started to use synthesizers heavily and people using these instruments started to get hand and wrist pain. The condition went mostly undiagnosed in the US until the mid 1990s when computers became more popular in the workplace.
There are a number of causes of carpal tunnel syndrome ...

 |  |  | Strain: Ways To Overcome Stress - Meditation
Since the time when man experienced the first flicker of self-awakening, his attention has remained focused on problems of worldly existence. No sooner is one problem solved, a new one springs up, thereby creating stress and tension in the mind. In the last few years, people have turned to meditation as a way to overcome emotional and mental strain. Meditation helps us withdraw our attention from the outer world and focus it at a point between and behind our eyebrows, thereby stimulating what is called the 'third eye'. By focusing our attention on it, we can reach higher levels of consciousness.

 |  |  | Strain: Understanding Concentration
Men of great success have been men of great concentration. Success does not come from outside. It is right within your brain. When a brilliant thought /idea strikes you, it needs to be nurtured and reared with patience, will, focus, and determined action. Only then will the tiny seed of an idea truly flower into a vibrant plant. The entire basis of the flowering is the mind and its powers. Concentration involves a honing in of the attention so that one's entire field of attention is thrown into whatever it is that one is doing. Concentration entails a focusing of energy-the energy that influences all our actions in life.

 |  |  | Strain: Do-it-Yourself Tips For Meditation
Meditation is a good stress-reliever. It calms the senses, making the mind inactive and the body, passive. Meditation usually involves concentrating on an object - a flower, a burning candle, a circle, a sound or word, or even one’s own rhythm of breath. Over time, random thoughts peter off. Meditation could also be objectless - just sitting, doing nothing. Most forms of meditation involve turning your attention inward, away from your usual preoccupations and activities. In the process, you make a simple but significant shift from thinking and doing, to just being. With repeated practice the mind begins to settle down and your breathing slows, and you get into a relaxed, peaceful, harmonious state.

 |  |  | Strain: Paganism PornographyPaganism & Pornography
At times my political views seem to lead me into
contradictions. Last month saw me writing a furious letter to Penthouse
magazine concerning their misinformed story on Witchcraft. Within two weeks I
was writing to the head of the QuickTrip Corporation protesting the removal of Penthouse from their stores. You'd think I would
have been happy at a blow struck against a magazine that maligned my religion.
Not so. At stake is the free expression of ideas. Misinformation and censorship
are both threats to
that freedom. Of the two, I judge censorship to be the greater threat. As long
as publishing continues unimpeded, retraction of misinformation is possible.
When publishing is censored, even that becomes impossible.

Yoga An Enlightening ExperienceKriya Yoga An Enlightening Experience
It all began when a
friend of mine gave me a copy of Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa
Yogananda. I read the entire book from cover to cover the first night. I was so
fascinated by Yogananda's description of Miracles and higher states of
consciousness he experienced in India and in the United States after he
traveled over here that I couldn't put the book down. The next week I left for
California with my last paycheck in my pocket. I drove all the way to
Yogananda's Hermitage/Retreat in Encinitas, California. I was a printing press
operator at the time and it just so happened they needed a printer at SRF. What
luck! It all seemed predestined.
