Answers  called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.

She  replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how  long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, that’s not a  problem.  If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my  right arm. If I hold it for a day, you’ll have to call an  ambulance. In each case it’s the same weight, but the longer I  hold it, the heavier it becomes.”

She continued, “and  that’s the way it is with stress. If we carry our burdens all  the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly  heavy, we won’t be able to carry on.”

“As  with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and  rest before holding it again.  When we’re refreshed, we can  carry on with the burden – holding stress longer and better each  time practiced.

So, as early in the evening as you can,  put all your burdens down. Don’t carry them through the evening  and into the night…. pick them up tomorrow.

Whatever  burdens you’re carrying now, put them down for a moment. Relax,  pick them up later after you’ve rested. Life is short. Enjoy it  and the now ‘supposed’ stress that you’ve  conquered!”
