Stress is destructive

Over the last couple of years it has happened every time when a journey was made from the USA to Europe.
Boarding the Jumbo in Los Angeles the sneezing would already start.
A tickling in the nose causing terrible sneezing and tears coming from the eyes.
Embarrassing too, being surrounded by hundreds of people put tightly together in a large airplane.
They won't say anything but some may think it might be the Mexican flue or at least a transferable cold.

Once arrived in Europe, the sneezing becomes epidemic, furious and frequent and soon the whole usual feeling of being healthy and strong evaporates.
The constant sneezing drains all energy and soon a light fever develops.
That is the moment that the best and only place to be is in a warm bed.
With warm caring of a healthy and loving person.

Like this time, all appointments had to be canceled.
And days were spend feeling miserable and awful and weak and failing and tragic.

But the Queen of Dreams, now a nurse as well, said: when you are sick, be sick.
Don't fight it.
Simply deliver yourself to it and be it.
Go through it.
Because a mind not in agreement with the state of being causes stress.
And stress is a destructive power.

So, with warmth, care and love, combined with homeopathic medication, the physical protest for leaving the Americas and going to Europe was embraced.

And it is going already much better.

Oh no! Traveling sickness is terrible! Please try taking several cloves of garlic, some fresh ginger and large amounts (grams) of vitamin C before and after you travel. I think you will find you do not get sick (and that you have the whole row in the airplane to yourself because of the smell of the garlic!)
