It may also indicate that we have stopped relying on Him for our daily strength. It can be a reminder that our lives have drifted away from Him. Life is way too complicated, and we are much too vulnerable in our human condition to ever escape the inevitable battles with stress. So, simply trust in God and you’ll never feel stressed again! If only it were really that easy. No matter what your trigger is, anxiety is usually an overwhelming response to our lack of trust in God and not enough time spent in His presence.
Even too much of a good thing can cause stress (i.e., ministry or hospitality). Situations that are ambiguous or confusing often invite stress. When circumstances seem unpredictable or out of our control, we feel stress. It tends to creep up on us when we’re tired, sick, late to an appointment or work, approaching a deadline, thinking about finances, or when we’ve taken on too many responsibilities. It usually happens when we feel like we have lost control. STRESS that dirty little five-lettered word – is our physical and emotional response to the situations that threaten or somehow challenge us. Not to scare you, but research has shown that long-term stress can lead to ulcers, high blood pressure, and arthritis. Stress increases the likelihood of becoming ill, produces illness, and can even make it difficult to recover from illness. However, continuous exposure to stressors results in our body’s inability to handle stress as blood vessels, heart muscles, and other tissue may deteriorate from constant overstimulation. In emergency situations, this response is beneficial as it propels us into action. Its your body’s immediate way of responding to what the brain has perceived as a “threatening” situation. You ever notice the changes your body undergoes when your anxiety increases? Usually there is an involuntary escalation in heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration rate. But ( sigh) it is so hard for me to actually find the time to relax, relate, and especially release. Whenever I become stressed, frustrated, and just plain overwhelmed with life, this phrase always pops into my head. Somehow – and someway – something stresses me out everyday. This is one of my favorite episodes and the phrase “relax, relate, release” has become a mantra that I use often. Thereafter, whenever Whitley becomes overwhelmed with emotion, she is encouraged to repeat the phrase “relax, relate, release”. The podcast is produced by Tanya and Cheryl, the engineer is Joe Flaherty, and distributed to podcast hosts through Spreaker.Remember that episode of A Different World when Whitley Gilbert (played by Jasmine Guy) broke down during a session with the campus therapist (played by Debbie Allen) because she couldn’t get over the fact that her wealthy ex-boyfriend, Julian, had moved on? In this scene, the therapist grows tired of hearing her overly dramatic ranting about her ex, and encourages -or rather commands - her to let him go and move on herself.

#DEBBIE ALLEN REFLECT RELAX RELATE RELEASE PROFESSIONAL#
Ultimately, Whitley is coaxed into seeing a professional to get to the bottom of her jealousy and almost drags her psychiatrist, played Debbie Allen, off the ledge with her. So this week we cover A Different World, season 4, episode 14 Ex-Communication and this episode is packed with one-liners, famous Whitleyisms, and director Debbie Allen steps in front of the camera to portray Whitley’s therapist! Whitely is a little too excited about her ex, Julian coming to town to see her but her ego quickly takes a punch when she finds out Julian is engaged to a runway model and they are moving to Paris! Whitley begins lamenting about the luxurious lifestyle she would have had if she and Julian were married almost costing her relationship with Dwayne.
