It is within said moments we remember with all senses the meaning of life beyond concepts, deadlines and what reigns in our heart is of primary importance. That which reigns is peace. All the dramas of our cultural inheritance, our upbringing, the memories and mental filters dissolve and your true beauty shines. So again I ask: How do you ease stress?
