Hi I just got home from the hospital about 30 minutes ago I had a minor heart attact I have to go in for more test on Monday, I think it has something to do with all this stress in my life with my wife leving and not talking to me or doing the thing she said she would I not sure.  But I have to go so I stop thinking about it it makes my chest burn and hurt and makes it hard to breath, how can just one person wreck some one else so bad..

Grief can be hard on us. Listen to what Tama posted to you and ESPECIALLY listen to your doctor's advice. Dr. Phil's son, Jay, says to the count of five in his book for teens and most women say to count of five works best. So for those of us not six feet tall football players like Dr. Phil...I changed to Jay's count of 5. God Bless You and Heal You and those dear to you and renew you mind, body, spirit and soul. Amen and Amen. SEA

Relaxation Script by Dr. Phil

Appendix A, page 285 - 286 WLC book

BREATHE to count of FIVE each way ...in and out... (7 FOR FOOTBALL STARS)

"Focus on your breathing: (UWS, PAGE 286) "Breathing out EXACTLY to count of 1-2-3-4-5. So focus on letting go of everything you want to let go, especially stress, fear and any other destabalizing emotions. For a few moments, practice letting go of any tension, stress, feelings, or thoughts that you don't need right now. Let them go. Then breathe in EXACTLY to the count of 1-2-3-4-5...

Next, I want you to know that when you let these things go with your out-breath, you are replacing that space with good, nurturing air with your in-breath. Visualize that good air coming into your body and healing whatever needs restoration. Send that air to anywhere in your body and feel the love and caring you are giving yourself right now. Bring it into yourself. Practice this for a little while.

What you need to do next is to balance these in-breaths with the out-breaths, so that you will feel soothing relaxation and balance coming into your body. Practice breathing in to a count of five, 1-2-3-4-5, now breathe out, 1-2-3-4-5, in-breath, 1-2-3-4-5, and out-breath 1-2-3-4-5. count for yourself for each in-breath and out-breath for at least five minutes.

Note to yourself that you are balancing your out-breaths and in-breaths, letting the stress and tension leave your body, and allowing the good nurturing air to come in. You are releasing the stress and bringing the healing forces in. "
